Leeh biydari kidah (Why Is He Hiding His Feelings Like This?)
For nights I was calling my darling and he did not come
He doesn't ease my mind and doesn't know what's happening to me
What can I do? I love him so much
Woe is me oh my fire
When I see his image before my eyes all day and night
What can I do? I love him so much
Woe is me oh my fire
When I see his image before my eyes oh what's with me?
Then why is he hiding his feelings like this
And he is unaware like this
And I don't know
Why is he confusing me
And why is he running away from me
And I never cross his mind
