The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, you know I have seen
A sky without sun
A man with no nation
Saints captive in chains
A song with no name for lack of imagination
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
And now it seems that I
With out your eyes could never be
My one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
Rabboussama'i fiki arraja'i
Fi ainaiha ara khayali
A'ti ilaiha min haza alkaouni
Arjou ellaiki labbi nidai
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
Oh, you know I have seen
A woman of means in rags
And begging for pleasure
Cross the river of salt
Just after I rode a ship that sunk in the desert
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
And now it seems that I
With out your eyes could never be
My one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
Rabboussama'i fiki arraja'i
Fi ainaiha ara khayali
A'ti ilaiha min haza alkaouni
Arjou ellaiki labbi nidai
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
Rabboussama'i fikarraja'i
Fi ainaiki ara el hayati
A'ti ilaika min haza alkaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Men Bahrein ila Beirut
Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
and I could not find eyes like yours
My one desire, all I aspire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain, got to Beirut
Looking for someone comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
