Does anyone have the lyrics, or even a vague idea of what they mean, to "Helalisa" by Hamza el Din? It's from the album Eclipse...

    I will have to find my album cover, but I know I found a translation before I performed to that song a couple years ago, and I'm pretty sure I found it in the cover.

    It's a poem, and don't quote me on this, because I have to find the actual translation again...

    But, some beautiful image about...

    A man on a boat, floating along the river, pumping water, pouring his heart into singing about his lost love, and a bird carries his message away, maybe to deliver it to his lost love...

    Something like that...I remember it was really beautiful, and along those lines.

    I think I left the cd case at an out-of-state friend's place, but when I get it back, I will try and remember to post it here.
    If you have the cd case, check it out to see if the translation is in there some where.

    I was just looking online for the translation, since I did a report on him in the past, and want to have one of my students do a presentation about him...and when googling to find the translation, I was lead to your post! Please let me know if you find it!
