Lyric Gabbar (جبّار) - Abdel Halim Hafez ( عبد الحليم حافظ)

Original lyric (Arabic)

عبد الحليم حافظ - جبّار

جبار .. جبار
في رقته جبار
جبار .. جبار
في قسوته جبار
خدعتني ضحكته
وخانتني دمعته

وما كنتش أعرف قبل النهارده
إن العيون دي تعرف تخون بالشكل ده
ولا كنت أصدق قبل النهارده
إن الحنان يقدر يكون بالشكل ده
جبار .. جبار

عرفته قد ما عرفته ولا عرفتوش
وشفته قد ما شفته ولا فهمتوش
كان بيقوللي أحبك .. أيوه كان بيقول
وأنا من لهفة قلبي صدقته على طول
كنت أشوف وأسمع وأحس بقلبه هو
كنت عايش مش عشاني عشانه هو
وما كنتش أعرف قبل النهارده
إن العيون دي تعرف تخون بالشكل ده
ولا كنت أصدق قبل النهارده
إن الحنان يقدر يكون بالشكل ده
جبار .. جبار

يا معلمني الحب ياريتني
ياريتني ما تعلمته معاك ولا شفته
ليه تخدعني ليه خليتني
خليتني أنسى الدنيا وأعيش بحلاوته
ده ما كانش في تنين زينا شافوا اللي شفناه في حبنا
الحلم كنا بنحلمه ونكمله من بعضنا
ليه تصحيني في وسط الجنة بنار ودموع
كنت إرحمني وسيبني شوية أعيش مخدوع
وما كنتش أعرف قبل النهارده
إن العيون دي تعرف تخون بالشكل ده
ولا كنت أصدق قبل النهارده
إن الحنان يقدر يكون بالشكل ده
جبار .. جبار

قلبي قول للحب إبعد عن طريقي
أي حب جديد ياويله من حريقي
لو ح أصادف قلب مخلص
مش ح آمن له وأصونه
وإن ضحك في عينيه ح أضحك
وأخدعه ويمكن أخونه
زي غيرنا ما باع
نبيع عمر الهوى وعهده
زي قلبي ما ضاع
تضيع كل القلوب بعده
ولا أقول لك .. لا يا قلبي
ليه نلوم على الحب ليه
ده اللي خانك خان شباب الحب
خان وجار عليه
يعني أنا والحب وإنت
كنا لعبة بين إيديه
وما كنتش أعرف قبل النهارده
إن العيون دي تعرف تخون بالشكل ده
ولا كنت أصدق قبل النهارده
إن الحنان يقدر يكون بالشكل ده
جبار .. جبار

Translation in English

Abdel Halim Hafez - Ruthless

Ruthless, ruthless
Ruthless in his gentleness
Ruthless, ruthless
Ruthless in his cruelty
His laugh deceived me
And his tear betrayed me

And I didn't know before today
That these eyes knew how to betray in this way
And I didn't believe before today
That compassion could be this way
Ruthless, ruthless
I knew how much I didn't know him and neither did you
And I saw how much I didn't see him and you didn't understand
He was telling me 'I love you'... 'yes' he was saying
And I from the pining of my heart believed him all the way
I was seeing and hearing and feeling his heart
I was living not for my sake but for his
And I didn't know before today
That these eyes knew how to betray in this way
And I didn't believe before today
That compassion could be this way
Ruthless, ruthless

Oh teacher of love if only I...
If only I didn't learn it with you and did not see it
Why did you deceive me, why did you make me?
Make me forget the world and live in its (love's) sweetness
There was not two like is that was seen as we say in our love
The dream we were dreaming and completing together
Why did you awake me in the middle of paradise with fire and tears?
And I didn't know before today
That these eyes knew how to betray in this way
And I didn't believe before today
That compassion could be this way
Ruthless, ruthless

My heart, tell love to get out of my way
I wish hell upon any new love from my own flames
If I were to come across an honest heart
I wouldn't trust it and and protect it
And if it laughed in it's eye I would laugh
And deceive it and maybe betray it
Like the others among us who sell out
We sell out the life of love and its pact
Like when my heart was wasted
You waste all the hearts after it
And I won't tell you... no my heart
Why do we blame love?
This that betrayed you betrayed the youth of love
Betrayed and wronged them
Meaning me, you and love
We were a plaything in its hands
And I didn't know before today
That these eyes knew how to betray in this way
And I didn't believe before today
That compassion could be this way
Ruthless, ruthless
