[AlThaniqtr1]

[armacino89]

I love her more than any other singers. Because she is perfect! RIP..

By the way, it's wonderful that the video is reaching to 1 million plays :)))

[Hossamzinho]

Om Kolthoum, was a planet of her own making....

Now one can compare any one else, living or dead, to Om Kolthoum..

[AlThaniqtr1]

this is not the all music ,this is the full watch?v=tAZxqfp5pTU and the original mp3/xeB30MDS/__-_.html this is 4shared 

[345roxie]

look how far she has to stand from the mic

[laSies1]

my father had a Caddilac when I was little, on the 8track Oum Kalthoum was played many, many times, I can still (phoneticly) sing along. Throughout the years I have learned what her lyrics mean and what she has meant to women in countries where women didn't have that much of a voice at that time. She's a hero to me!

[QueenSoniaa]

I don't understand a word she says, but I fell in love with her voice after hearing her at a neighbor's house. I was instantly drawn to her voice. Like no one singer. :) Cheers from Spain♥

[azmidisi]

[yesilminnos]

[MrCangkirkopi]

..so pure with soul..love it all..!

[siara570]

Thank you so much, and the recording is very good too! Easy on the ears, just like it's supposed to be:D

[euroloog]

Heerlijke muziek, voor een Nederlander eventjes vreemd, maar het went vlug en is zo mooi. Een Egyptische DIVA waar we te weinog van horen hier helaas!

[titusbeertsen]

@euroloog Een Nederlander hier? Gelukkig zijn er dus nog meer die naar deze mooie muziek luisteren! Probeer Hayart Albi eens, dat vind ik het mooiste nummer tot nu toe.

[khalo0od1]

She is Adele of Arabs

[ybish1350]

@khalo0od1 are you fucking retarded?

[khalo0od1]

@ybish1350 haha sorry I meant Adele is Oum Kalthoum of UK :p

[uricay]

She and her voice, a gift of God to the world! Lovely, lovely!

[AFSHAANTAHIR]

ameezinggggggggggg

[AmiinaaNadOriaa]

HEr voice is beautiful!!!

But why is she always holding a cloth??

[burningphoneix]

@AmiinaaNadOriaa It's just her trademark. A lot of people have that little quirk.

[AmiinaaNadOriaa]

@burningphoneix thanks for the answer!!

[eslamesawy79]

@AmiinaaNadOriaa

She used to feel nervous and anxious in front of her audience, and her hands get sweat a lot, for this reason she used to hold a piece of tissue

[AmiinaaNadOriaa]

@eslamesawy79 oke! thanx

[Arlequins]

la mejor de su epuca.y sin los adelantos tecnologicos

[ShyAwayPhantom]

She's a goddess.

[ilovemoroco]

quel charisme !quel charme! quelle voix extraordinaire !

sincerment elle est la diva de toute les divas du monde.

les mots et la musique me transpercent le coeur et l'âme une vraie thérapie antistress que du bonheur avec cette femme je suis sur les nuages là

[albahjaful]

merci saidati al 3adima,,voue etes unik

[raven010496]

No singer in the present can beat oum kalthoum. she's one of a kind singer!

[TheDMM]

@michellybaby

[ClapzMoro]

She can be summed up in 2 words: The Greatest

[ultracairo]

[nayef012]

Arabian poetry........................­....divine

[9al9ola]

10 idiots hit accidentally the dislike button

[shomzabe]

A note on the translation: Arabic language has a system of rhymes, schemes, and rhythmic structure. There are 10 forms to each verb and each verb has numerous meanings which gives the language 1.6 million words. In contrast, English has about 600,000 words ( about 1/3 of Arabic language,) and that makes translating any Arabic word into English very difficult. Therefore, the translation I’m posting is not even close to the beauty and meaning in its Arabic form, but you get the idea.

[shomzabe]

Translation of Amal Hayati in 9 posts

(1)

You're the hope of my life, A precious Love that never ends

You're the best song that my heart heard and that could never be forgotten

Take all my love way.. but today

but today let me live

Keep me by your side, in your heart's lap!

Let me dream.. let me

I hope the time never wakes me up.. never wakes me up

[shomzabe]

(2)

My hope.. My life... My eyes

You're more precious.. more precious than me to me

You're the lover of yesterday and the lover of today

You're a lover for tomorrow.. and for the end of times

My lover, my lover

Talk to me and tell me

What dream could possibly be missing when I'm lying in your arms

[shomzabe]

(3)

I never tasted love like you love

I never loved, the love of my life, but for you i did

& I've met my dreams, I've met the world.. I've met love

From the first time I met you.. I gave you my heart.. you're the life of my heart

I've never dreamed of more than this happiness,

I don't ask more than what I'm in

After this joy with you my love

If I lost my life.. I, I, I don't regret it

[shomzabe]

(4)

It's enough for me to wake to your smile singing

I hear it as a song.. i hear it as a song

Telling me love that doesn't end

Keep me by your side, in your heart's lap!

Let me dream.. let me

I hope the time never wakes me up.. never wakes me up

[shomzabe]

(5)

You're the one whose love filled all the world with love

& whose presence awakened my life time and my heart

When you're with me, it's hard for me to blink.. Even for seconds

It's hard on me if your beauty or your sweetness disappears even a bit

I miss him that much.. That's how much I need him..

[shomzabe]

 (6)

I would like to call you by a word that was never told before

A word worth all this love.. a word worth all this love

A word to show my longings and passion

A word like you.. A word like you.. where can i find you?

There wasn't anyone born like you..

Keep me by your side, in your heart's lap!

Let me dream.. let me

I hope the time never wakes me up.. never wakes me up

[shomzabe]

(7)

My love, no matter how long my life would be with you

It's still few

The joy and tenderness that's in your love

Is enough for more than many long generations

Your love filled my heart and my thoughts/

Lightens my night and making my life longer

It grows, it grows.. by your preciousness, it always grows

And it's always new.. by its sweetness, always new

[shomzabe]

 (8)

You made me live the love, with you it's a thousand love

With each look at you, I love you.. oh I love you.. I love you all over again

& My love is always new, I'll love you forever

I loved in your eyes all the world

Even my enemies and those who envy me

All of the people seem nice to me

As long as my eyes see the world with you by my side

[shomzabe]

Here is the translation of this song. I got it from the web and it doesn't look bad but you get the idea. I'll number the posts and start from the last part of the song  (9)

I fall asleep and wake on you lips singing

I hear it as a song.. i hear it as a song

Telling me love that doesn't end

Keep me by your side, in your heart's lap!

Let me dream.. let me

I hope the time never wakes me up.. never wakes me up

[Atteusis]

Expressed in one sentence:

She was a gifted singer.

[SALONIKARIS1914]

ποιός να συγκριθεί μαζί σου ...............

[Yuba1986Alhoceima]

i am from morocco i dont like arabs but i love oum k music

[shomzabe]

@Yuba1986Alhoceima

Better keep your mouth shut and be thought of as a fool than open it and remove all doubts.

[Amoree1968]

this is the real music, and it's not like what was happened now!!!!!!

[steadystef36]

I am dutch but love this music, ilike fayruz 2

[ChristacheLaPistache]

Can anyone please tell me what's the song about? Thx.

[sultan14087]

@ChristacheLaPistache the hope of my life the right translation of this song. the thing about the old type of arabic song at her area 30s to the 60s is that the singer will sing on song for the whole concert. usually the song is 45 min.

[SLAVEFEETHOR]

AMAL HAYATI:LA ESPERANZA DE MI VIDA,UNA DE LAS CANCIONES MÁS HERMOSAS DEL MUNDO,Y OUM KALSOUM UNA DE LAS POCAS VOCES QUE AÚN CONSIGUEN EMOCIONAR A MILLONES DE PERSONAS!ANA AHMILU-HA FI QALBI!TE LLEVO SIEMPRE EN MI CORAZÓN UM,UMMI...

[yasinrocker77]

çok güzel

[onlyhim4u]

see how far the Mic from her mouth , like 1/2 a meter far, if she comes closer , the speakers would explode , it is not like the singers of today who kiss the Mic in order to sing

لاحظ بعد المسافة مابين الفم والمايك لابد ان يكون على الاقل نصف متر مسافة و لواقتربت الى المايك فان السماعات تنفجر من قوة الحنجرة المغنيين الاخرين فى ايامها و الان تقريبا يبوسون المايك علشان صوتهم يبان

HER MICROPHONES ARE VERY CLOSE TO HER MOUTH they are hanging from above you can see them up the screen. The microphone that you see belong to the orchestra behind. Microphones are positioned close to the mouth for best quality recording and minimizing the surrounding noise and…

[Cherrokeetgirl]

@zaidazem that may be true (about that large mic being for the band) , however it is true, the mics could not stay close to her mouth or else they would be dam aged. Very close? not quite. Singerstoday's mics are VERY close- here u can see hers are at least three feets away if not more.

[aSPARROWfalls]

@Cherrokeetgirl The positioning of a microphone has less to do with the singer's ability to vocally project than it does the design and capabilities of the microphone. The reason for holding it so close is because we have a "loudness war" in music now. To achieve max volume for a singer at ALL times, we hold the mic close and use a compressor maximizes your softer sounds without having to turn the preamp high enough to pick up everything on stage and keeping it low so you don't break the preamp

[Jack1fernando1cindy]

@zaidazem her mic is the one set in front of her about 1 meter far !

[Cherrokeetgirl]

@onlyhim4u

that is 100% true. Her voice was so powerful that microphones at the time could not capture her ululations, a voice so powerful the MICROPHONE would have been damaged. subhan allah

[NilsvdHoeven]

@onlyhim4u bullshit

[fanchette122]

une grande chanteuse egyptienne, dommage que je ne comprenne pas l'arabe

[audiodoom]

@schattensand

Your comment shows class…almost .. if it had consideration for someone’s awkward choice of a word, in a foreign tongue, in which case your pity turns out to be false pride.

This could be overcome on it’s turn, by abolishing the need for looking down upon others, shall we talk about it?

[schattensand]

@audiodoom

Yes, why not, but not here.

[313BOSTON]

best of the best

[bachirovitch]

[Chanel98y]

can you put the beggining tune in the very beggining

[1220amsoulradio]

I have watched many concerts by Oum Kalthoum. The lady is a force of nature like the wind or the waves of the ocean. Look at the musicians follow her, listen to the crowd react. Feel your own reactions as you follow her singing from the soul.

[Alexandre47]

Sou Português,e adoro a musica Araba... E muito orgulhoso daquilo que este nobre povo(Arabe) nos deixou... ALLAH. Oum Kalthoum a Rainha da arte de cantar.

I am not a fan of Oum Kalthoum . But i am proud that people still like the singers in the olden great days .

[schattensand]

@halimvideos

You are proud - I am so sorry for you. Shall we talk about it- its not too difficult to go beyond pride.

[ram321z]

The one and only Um Kalthoum. For us, was, is and forever will be THE BEST, She as herself, the voice, the words and the music...A crown on our heads of what we can achieve utilizing our talents and heritage.

i think its the third part in the song

[cethal]

cant stop pressing replay :)

[rassemrabi]

the best songer

[hyppodiarytus]

she had a contralto vocal range. she had the ability to sing as low as the second octave, as well as the ability to sing as high as between the seventh and the eighth octaves at her vocal peak; yet she also could easily sing over a range surpassing two octaves near the end of her career. Her ability to produce approximately 14,000 strength, , no commercial microphone utilized for singing could withstand its strength, forcing her to stand at a 1- to 3-meter

[1sarinolas]

grande classico dell'eterna Oum Kalthoum

[DorelCameroun]

The part of Keops pyramid is in the songs oh her!

[851dash]

she's not better than lata mangeshker(ind)and madam noor jahan(pakistan)

[humanrights4all]

@851dash it’s all relative, her appreciation within the Arab world shouldn’t necessarily be shared by the whole world...

[eleemoussa29]

@851dash trust me shes better than everyone

[SABBOU7TE]

@851dash

she is the best

[arabique]

@851dash really... i understand you are defending your singers fair enough. But Oum Kathoum IS the purist definition of 'Music'.

[paro1791]

does anyone know the name of this song??????

[SARAAZZ1]

@paro1791 the name of the song is AMAL HAYATY ( the hope of my life )
