about

Ya Gharib ('Hey Stranger!') is about feeling and being made to feel out of place in a land not of one’s own choosing.

lyrics

اتغربت من غير ماتحرك، جاتلي الغربة لحد البيت
حالة الاستغراب من الدنيا وراية وراية مهما جريت

صبحت في يوم فتحت عينيا طلعت أنا اللي غريب
والمعتاد طلع مش عادي لما تشوفه من قريب

يا غريب


I was exiled without even moving
The alienation came right to my house
The state of finding the world strange
Chases me wherever I go

Woke up one morning, opened my eyes
Turns out it’s me that's strange
And the ordinary turns out to not be normal
When you look at it up close

Oh stranger
