يارا الجدايلها شقر
الفيهن بيتمرجح عمر
و كل نجمة تبوح بسرارا ... يارا
يارا الغفى عا زندا خيا الزغير
و ضلت تغني و الدني حدا تطير
و الرياح تدوزن وتارا ... يارا
الحلوي الحلوايي تعبو زنودا
و نتفي اصفروا خدودا
و بإيدا نعست الأسوارة
و لمن إجت يارا تحط خيا بالسرير
تصلي يا ربي صيرو خيي كبير
و للسما ديها هاك الدين الحرير
انلمت الشمس و عبت زوارا
Yara ... with her golden curls
In them swings a lifetime
every star is telling its secret : Yara
Her young brother slept on her hand
She kept singing with the world flying around her
the wind is tuning its strings :Yara
The beautiful girl's hands are tiered
a little more , her cheeks turned a little yellow
and in her hand the bracelet began to fall aspleep
and when she went to put her brother to bed
She prayed "Oh God ! be with my brother as he grows up"
her satin hands stretched towards the sky
the sun gathered in her loincloth (the sun was gathered, and it fill her apron)
Written by the most prominent Lebanese Poet and the pioneer of the renovation of arabic poetry , Said Akl , the song of Yara is dear to Fairouz , she sang it during her first interview with Miterrand in the 80's during "Du COTE de chez Frederic" , this song is a small prayer of a girl tucking her brother in the bed , a lullaby , but a lullaby from the east , which ends with a prayer to GOD , like to prayer of every Lebanese Mother to her child every night when she goes to sleep , reminding us of the presence of GOD in everything in our life every second , every song, everything in our life should be a prayer and a glorification to GOD.
