She Will Play by BlueSpirit

Wallah, ya binti, no,

you cannot go

People will talk,

they watch, you know

This is not for girls,

this is our way

I say these words,

but my heart not stay (ahhhh) (mmmmm)

I see you running,

I see your eyes

You play like wind

beneath the skies

Ya Allah, why

I am afraid?

If I say no,

what have I saved?

My father voice is in my head

The elders say,

keep her instead

Shame, shame, they say,

close the door

But she

is knocking

more and more

(la,

la, khalas...)

Wallah, I am

fighting with myself

Tradition here, her dream on shelf

I fear the family,

I fear their word

But when she plays,

my soul is heard Khalas,

ya binti, go, you play

Ana ma'ak,

I stand today

Let them talk, let them

see your light

Your dream is

not a wrong tonight

Run, ya binti, run free

Your courage,

it has changed me (ana ma'ak) (mmmmm)
