When I close my eyes I dream of you.
Can't sleep at night 'cause I wanna be with you.
Don't want to live, don't want to cry
Without you by my side.

When I go to sleep at night
I ask God to make my days bright.
I know he will do it - I know it is true.
Because he knows I only want to be with you.

I hear your voice inside my head.
I can imagine us together again.
I know it will happen - I know it is true;
Because I asked God if I can be with you.

I see you and I together again;
Holding hands and feeling the pain.
What a beautiful feeling - I wish it were true.
But I am only dreaming
dreaming of you......

Its raining outside…
A heavy rain in a city called Mumbai…
As I am lying on my bed.. thinking of you…
In this strange land.. far from home…

My tears drop on the pillow..
In every tears … there is your face..
I cant help it.. I have to let it go..
It’s a heavy downpour too in my heart..
My tears keep falling..
Like the flowing water in the Ganges river…
I see you in the rain that fall…
you and the rains,
are one,
in a splash
of water coming through me,
I see your reflections,
in every rain that drops…

Am I dreaming? Am I in real?
Am I in a paradise?
Its so beautiful I cant imagine…
when you and me ..dancing in the rain…

Is this really happening?
The flowing waters, the chirping birds,
the beautiful landscape..
of sweet scented roses and orchids,

I adore the paradise in you, with you…
In a splash,
our shadows
In shower dance,
playing the rhythm
of the rains,
i see you in every rain,
that falls….

I wish the rain will not stop..
For I cant see you in each little drops.. no more
I will say good bye to Mumbai..
but I will cry not,
my heart is full of rains,
you and the rains,
We are one in the rains

How could you not see me?
When i stand out in the crowd..

How could you not notice me?
When only your name i shout?

How could you avoid me?
When I am the one who made you proud?

How could you?

The fierce looking man entered my home
Taking my baba, my mama,
My life
Continuously kicking, spitting on us..
I hold my brother close,
Whispering God's words
As warplanes return above our heads,
Darkness, light, explosions, destruction, screams, sirens,
One more, ten more, hundred more
Souls taken,
I squeeze tighter,
Continue to whisper
Allah please save us...
with hardship comes ease ,
One day soon,
The new green, white, and black
Will show his face no more;
I will bring home my gold medal
To a Syria free, free, free
