peace. translated as 'give up some peace, give up some peace.' or bring peace. show some peace.

[princessameera18]

Wow...beautiful song....one of my favorite singer Haifa.. Frank you are always the best :) actually i love all the music, English, Arab, french, Italian, Spanish, Indian as well :) which i m try to learn those language. Anything that appears in each, and every human culture could be considered human nature. In many ways, love defines who we are so the music..;) thank you so much for sharing....have a blessing day..;)

[Macaframa1]

why do you cover up translation by sahar30 or whoever that is?

[Susanna129]

I like the singer and the video presentation, great song..Love it...Thank you...:))

[pinkert0n]

[Yael666]

thanx for the mp3.

[FrankCoffman]

Yael1666,

You're welcome. I'm glad you dig it.

[Yael666]

Great músic!!!!!Haifa is wonderfull singer!

[Godivajess]

I love Haifa Wehbe she's an open woman, futurist from where she's from. Love her, she has lots of guts. thumbs up lady! My #1.

[AbdullahKhaleeji7]

Haifa Wehbe is NOT an Arab she is a plastic European Wesernized Lebanese

[FrankCoffman]

AbdullahKhaleeji7

You post hateful comments on my videos, but you never comment on the videos or the songs. You barely even notice the videos. You just use them to post your personal attacks -- because you are a fanatic who has no respect for other people.

Apparently, you don't listen to the songs. You don't try to enjoy anything. You're too hateful and narrow-minded to enjoy the music. You are a very negative, intolerant person. You talk like a racist. Fuck off with your stupid little jihad.

[AbdullahKhaleeji7]

I enjoy true Arabian music and culture not fake Arab Lebanese GREEK culture. I respect people but it makes me mad when people think this is Arab its not. And what do you mean "your little Jihad"?

[FrankCoffman]

AbdullahKhaleeji7

You say it's "Greek." Even if that's true, so what? What's wrong with Greek? Are you a purist who can't enjoy anything beyond your own traditional culture?

This is a good song, regardless of its origins. It doesn't matter whether it's Greek, Arabic or whatever. No one is making any ethnic claim for this music. If you don't like it, don't watch it. You don't need to put it down & you don't need to put her down.

Broaden your horizons and stop being so intolerant of others.

[dinavienna]

@FrankCoffman good response...

[FrankCoffman]

@dinavienna

Thanks. I get irritated with some people's attitudes. Grrrrr....

[rumbato]

abdullahkhaleej u must be one of those indian or somali immigrants in the gulf from centuries ago, who thinks that arabs should look like them. Get off it.

[Petsy2006]

And its your GULFSTATE khaleeji shit who until recently were some bunch of ignorant nomads and some English found oil now with USA support you act like you are some true "arabs"....which you are certainly NOT...khalleeji arabs are mixed up with africans/pakistani and indians....

besides "greek" music is in fact mostly Egyptian music...Egyptian have the oldest music tradition and is centre of arab world of culture etc.

[FrankCoffman]

@Petsy2006

Good comment. You make good points. Yeah, racism and ultra-nationalism never make sense. It's great for everyone to love their own country, but not at the expense of putting down other countries and other peoples.

[Enquiringmind777]

Love it when Haifa sings at 2.08, sounds so beautiful I could hear that 100 times and not get fed up listening to it. I love the Arabic language it's the most beautiful language in the world, I can read the words in Arabic and write it, but don't understand it.

[FrankCoffman]

Enquiringmind777

I agree. Thanks for your comment.

I have a video of her performing this song on stage. The video is on YouTube under the title "Haifa Wehbe 'Salim Halak' sexy rare video, subtitles."

[kisdishmainhai]

same here i can read and write it but do not know the language n i wished i did...

[sxcseniorita]

In iran they speak farsi not arabic totally different language!

[nasrilayth]

[0o0o0o0PsSs]

Haifa star of the first Arab nation without any competing

These were the best of her songs

[hothotpink14]

[fidelcastro711]

I must leave another comment...you did a really good job with this video! I love the beginning and the photo of her with the silver hejab is awesome.

[FrankCoffman]

fidelcastro711

Thanks for your comment. I was inspired by the music to make this kind of video. Yes, her unusual silver hijab is striking.

[RenadTreeInElgana]

Haifa half egyption half lebanese she got look and brain

In btw her  first Egyption film in Egyption cinema is a distaster lol , Ilike it ,It will be remarkable

[FrankCoffman]

Renad'

Yes, her mother is Egyptian -- and now she's married to an Egyptian. She spends a lot of time in Egypt.

I don't understand your comment about her film. You seem to be saying two opposite things. ??

[RenadTreeInElgana]

why ? her film is amazing

[sthesao29]

Qué hermosa mujer, qué hermosa canción y que elegante es! Que siga así.

[abfmariachi]

Habibi!!!

[MunichMyHeartAndSoul]

She is so hot! I am looking for this girl i fought with earlier. I had to close my account because of a mistake i made in my profile now i am back to whoop the Haifa haters butt.

[marintia25]

HAIFAsimpre tan guapa y sexy.

¡Me encanto esta canción.

¡Que tengas un lindo día!

[DGRosetti]

This is a great song from her, if you liked this one you'll like her new album

[hrusd01]

She wears way toooo much make up..very unatractive...I am sure she is prettier without the make up

[habib2003]

Frank, thanks for the wonderful written arabic pronounciation lyrics you provided. They are a great help for those like me who don't speak arabic, but wish we could sing these songs.. Sukran.

[nelu7x]

Very nice.

I like very much ideea with face Sphinx and Haifa transitions.

Another good ideea is the lyrics translations because Haifa have a many fans to who don't know arabic language. Personal i am very frustrated because i don't understand the lirics on her songs and i can't use'it on my Haifa clips creations.

[fidelcastro711]

[sahar30]

Great job Frank! Favorited :)

[FrankCoffman]

Sahar,

Thanks. Your translation made it possible. Your critical feedback helped me, too. Thank you!

[fidelcastro711]

hi, I dont know if it was on purpose but all the lyrics are not on the video. You have more typed but there is a long period in the video where the lyrics dont appear.

[FrankCoffman]

Hi, fidel,

I'm glad you like the song. It's a great tune -- and, yes, somewhat addictive.

Yes, I didn't put lyrics on the entire video. I left out some lyrics on purpose because I felt that the printing would distract and mar some of the images. Plus, some of the lyrics are repeated in the song, so they don't need to be shown again.

I used the essential lyrics to convey what the song is about. All the lyrics are in the "more info" section.

[MayaArabRoh]

wow, nice pics and vid:)))
