Tripoli Calling

  • 0:03 - 0:07
    Tripoli...Tripoli...Our capital city is calling us.
  • 0:11 - 0:21
    May God Protect her. May God grant victory to her children. O Lord...
  • 0:24 - 0:27
    The bride is wounded - a chest wound.
  • 0:27 - 0:29
    Tripoli is imprisoned - house arrest.
  • 0:29 - 0:32
    From far away we hear you and our hearts are with you.
  • 0:32 - 0:35
    Believe me, if I could, I would be near you.
  • 0:35 - 0:38
    I see you clearly even though you're hiding.
  • 0:38 - 0:41
    He's still strangling you and your neck is blue.
  • 0:41 - 0:44
    I'm going up to the highest place to cry.
  • 0:44 - 0:47
    Because of the tyranny, her face has changed.
  • 0:47 - 0:49
    I do not know if this word will reach you.
  • 0:49 - 0:52
    I speak to you, my love. I wish I could come to you.
  • 0:52 - 0:56
    I am in pain because of your pain.
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    I wish you'd reply to me
  • 0:58 - 1:01
    and tell me, "God bless you."
  • 1:01 - 1:04
    Sleep doesn't come to me at night. He prevents it.
  • 1:04 - 1:06
    I hear you saying, "I want you here."
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    I wish...I swear by God and by the verses of the Quran that the wall is soaked in my tears.
  • 1:09 - 1:12
    They wonder, "What is wrong? What's with him? Is he mad?"
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    My mind isn't with me when they speak to me.
  • 1:15 - 1:18
    She is the only beloved - I'll say it clearly.
  • 1:18 - 1:21
    The western capital: without it, nothing happens.
  • 1:21 - 1:25
    I hope no one gets jealous. I can't control anything
  • 1:25 - 1:27
    and that's what hurts me. Take my hands, take my legs.
  • 1:27 - 1:29
    [Lord,] just keep her [safe].
  • 1:29 - 1:32
    Patience has its limits, the hearts [have] faithfulness.
  • 1:32 - 1:35
    We reached a point of no return just like the bullets that hit our chests and our heads.
  • 1:35 - 1:38
    May god forgive the sniper who takes pity on her.
  • 1:38 - 1:41
    She is peaceful! Look at her hands! She cannot harm [anyone].
  • 1:41 - 1:44
    _. She has never known freedom.
  • 1:44 - 1:47
    . Her story is bitter.
  • 1:47 - 1:50
    You are the one who is unjust towards her.
  • 1:50 - 1:53
    You are making her collapse while acting proud in front of the people.
  • 1:53 - 1:55
    You are making her collapse while acting proud in front of the people.
  • 1:55 - 1:58
    All the world bears witness and watches.
  • 1:58 - 2:01
    Everything you do is known.
  • 2:01 - 2:04
    It is impossible to ignore these facts.
  • 2:04 - 2:06
    There are millions who are touched by her eyes.
  • 2:06 - 2:09
    Deadly and violent attacks on us.
  • 2:09 - 2:13
    May God protect her from this sinful tyrant.
  • 2:13 - 2:15
    It's true that his regime is illegitimate.
  • 2:15 - 2:18
    His words are all failing lies
  • 2:18 - 2:21
    I can't describe her beauty with my tongue.
  • 2:21 - 2:24
    It adds to my burden when I see her suffer.
  • 2:24 - 2:27
    If I were near her, I would unburden what is on my chest.
  • 2:27 - 2:29
    What was her crime? Go ahead and dig my grave.
  • 2:29 - 2:32
    I don't have patience anymore, it burns my blood.
  • 2:32 - 2:35
    I no longer feel hunger, thirst or need to sleep from the sorrow.
  • 2:35 - 2:38
    Who among the people understands that Tripoli is calling?
  • 2:38 - 2:41
    Let's put her on top of my country.
  • 2:43 - 2:48
    The end of the nightmare is the liberation of Tripoli.
  • 2:50 - 2:53
    We're with you.
