Silent Words

Tracklist + Liner Notes

1. Silent Words

   Beyond the lines of no man’s land
   Time stands still
   My voice is weak, but far away, I softly speak
   In silent words, on folded knees

   With silent words we call the night
   To bring you sleep & dry your eyes
   To bring you dreams & free your minds
   When every hope has gone, we hold on
   With silent words we’ll ask the dawn
   To chase your fears when nights are long
   A million voices in to one
   When every hope has gone
   We echo all night through
   With silent words we are with you

   Where seeds were thrown, and taken far
   A desert blooms a world apart
   And while their roots are far from home
   We whisper words to help them grow

   With every tear you cry, we’ll comfort you
   Standing by your side, as one with you
   You can find us, deep in the silence
   carried in the soft winds passing through
   We’ll be your shadow, today and tomorrow
   There to follow everything you do

   الهي، أدخل السرور
   Lord, bring happiness

   ياربِ أسعد القلوب
   And bestow joy to the hearts

   الهي، خفف الآلام
   Lord, alleviate the pain

   من لسوريا سواك؟
   For who will save Syria other than You?

   من يحيي بسمةَ الحزين؟
   Who will restore the smile of the depressed?

   من يُنسي أنّةَ المسكين؟
   Who will soothe (alleviate) the soreness of the poor?

   من يمسح دمعَ اليتيم؟
   Who will wipe the tears of the orphan?

   أبكي بصمتٍ وأنين
   Silently, I cry and sigh

   عن شيخ، شاب، ويتيم
   For the old, the young and the orphan

   عنكِ يا…آه سوريا
   For you … Oh Syria
