Maa Lahu Shattu

from Bihar El Hawa by Karima El Fillali

lyrics

ما زِلتُ أطْفو في بِحارِ الهَوى

يَرْفَعُني المَوْجُ وَأنْحَطُّ

فَتارَةً يَرْفَعُني مَوْجُها

وتارَةً أهْوي وَأنْغَطُّ

حتّى إذا صَيَّرَني في

الهَوى إِلى مَكانٍ ما لَهُ شَطُّ

نادَيْتُ يا مَنْ لَمْ أَبُحْ باسْمِهِ

وَلَمْ أخُنْهُ في الهَوى قَطُّ


I never stop floating in the sea of love
Up and down the waves are lifting me

Sometimes her waves lift me up
and sometimes I fall and drown

Then finally He is leading me to Love
to a place where there is no shore

I call Him whose name I do not tell
And who in love isn’t betrayed by me



Words: Mansur Al Hallaj

about

The Q4 Larnaca, Cyprus

Four young beat makers met one faithful evening in a dodgy dive bar in Amsterdam, during the fourth quarter of 2005. Three of them would ultimately go on to form a band: The Quadraphonic Quartet (The Q4).
