Daw Da Hiya |
| Back in ancient time |
| Loving was a crime |
| For a single girl |
| Like the beautiful |
| Daw Da Hiya |
| Sisters barred her way |
| But she couldn’t wait |
| She spurned her father’s hand |
| And took her man |
| Despite tradition |
| La’ad tizini wala’ad tirtihi |
| Wa daw da hiya asal ma’an dzha lihis |
| Daw da hiya |
| Achad galbeh urach |
| Achad galbeh urach |
| Walyom mitel chasa |
| Walyom ma’an dzha tiss |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her passion drove her wild |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her love was suicide |
| Love comes with a price |
| They came for her one night |
| For her family’s shame |
| She had to face |
| The judge’s might |
| Now she was with child |
| No one was at her side |
| When the judge declared |
| That she must die |
| Tradition |
| Lamat lamat lamat wala fashe shamat |
| Gumi tatari gumi utatari ya din |
| Daw da hiya |
| Wi darde hu bich ila ila wadi bana |
| Wilyom kulana nea’azi alechk |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her passion drove her wild |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her love was suicide |
| In a time and place |
| Where a woman can’t show her face |
| Her life is ruled by men |
| That shouldn’t happen again |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her passion drove her wild |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Daw da hiya |
| Her love was suicide |
