Shakira - Eyes Like Yours Lyrics

Oh, you know I have seen

A sky without sun
A man with no nation
Saints captive in chains
A song with no name
For lack of imagination
Ya he ya he ya la he

And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
And now it seems that I
Without your eyes
Could never be

My one desire
All I aspire
Is in your eyes
Forever to live
Traveled all over
The seven oceans
There's nothing
That I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beirut
Looking for someone

Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours

Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beirut

Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours

Oh, you know I have seen
A woman of means in rags
And begging for pleasure
Crossed a river of salt
Just after I rode
A ship that's sunk
In the desert
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
You know it seems that I
Without your eyes
Could never be

My one desire
All I aspire
Is in your eyes
Forever to live
Traveled all over

Crossed lands and oceans
There's nothing
That I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain

Got to Beirut
Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors

And I could not
Find eyes like yours
Rabboussamai fikarrajaii

Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beirut
Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours
Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beirut
Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours
My one desire
All I aspire
Is in your eyes
Forever to live
Traveled all over
Crossed lands and oceans
There's nothing
That I wouldn't give
Came from Bahrain
Got to Beirut
Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down
Windows and doors
And I could not
Find eyes like yours

Translation of Arabic verse
God in the heavens

in her/his eyes i have hope
I come to you in this world
please answer my plea
