Fuad Yahya Apr 9, 2010:
You are absolutely right. I was wrong. I read the language pair incorrectly. I apologize to you, and I have removed my discussion entry altogether. Thank you.
Mohamed Ghazal (asker) Apr 9, 2010:
Hi Fuad, I do not understand the text and I do not intend to translate it until I do. That's why I am posting questions.
And I did post the question Arabic-Arabic, same as the other questions related to this song, including the one you already answered in English.

يا قدري/ يا حظّي

أظنّ أن كلمة وعدي ليست حرفية وإنما مجازية، فالشاعر متألم ويندب حيرته، ويقول، يا قدري أو يا لحظّي، فالوعد هو ما يوعَد به الإنسان في المستقبل
كما في الآية
(وَفِي السَّمَاءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ) الذريات:22
