Lyrics of ‘Al Jeel Al Jadeed’ – song will be released tomorrow

One day ahead of the release of Doc Jazz’s new song ‘Al Jeel Al Jadeed’ (The New Generation) on Youtube, here are the lyrics of the song!

‘Al Jeel Al Jadeed’ is an Arabic song by Palestinian artist Doc Jazz. This music video for the song was directed by Palestinian artist Shahd Abusalama in Gaza, involving more than 20 youths from a variety of backgrounds. The song sends a strong and empowering message of unity, tolerance and equality, with a positive vibe that is needed to counter the wave of sectarian strife in the Arab world.

Below the Arabic lyrics that follow now, you can find the (non-rhyming) translation in English. Keep an eye on Youtube tomorrow; the planned time for releasing the song is at 14:00 Abu Dhabi time (GMT + 4). Don’t miss it!

الجيل الجديد – دكتور جاز

يا عالم شوفو شو اللي عم بيصير
ما في سلامة و ما في امان
و كل الضحايا من الجماهير
هم اللي بيعانوا من العدوان

مين بيدفع ثمن كل هالتغييرات
الا المواطن الفقير الغلبان
بين المطالب و بين الشعارات
بتسمع صرخة من الطفل الجوعان

************

إن شاء الله بتهون و ما رح تزيد
والمحبة هي الحل الوحيد

عندي إحساس زي كل الناس
و الطائفية ما لها اساس
و عندي احلام وما هي اوهام
نعيش مع سوى بالسلام

الجيل الجديد     عنده امال
ما بيرضى على هل إنقسامم
وحدة الناس هي المقياس
و بتقضي على عصر الآم

*************

طب قولولي وين الإحترام
الأخوية والمحبة بالذات
شو هو المجتمع بدون انتظام
فوضة خطيرة عالشباب والبنات

نترك مجال للرأي والإختلاف
بدون ما نوقع في سفك الدماء
و الأمل انه يتم الانكشاف
على جذور الوحدة والإنتماء

THE NEW GENERATION – Doc Jazz

People, look at what is happening
There is no well-being, there is no safety
All victims are from among the population
They are the ones who suffer from the aggression

Who pays the price for all these changes?
Only the citizen, impoverished and overwhelmed
Among the demands and the slogans
You can hear the scream of a hungry child

CHORUS:

God willing, it will pass, and won’t get worse
And love is the only solution

I have a feeling, like everyone else
And sectarianism has no basis
And I have dreams, they are not illusions
That we can live together in peace

The New Generation has hopes
And does not accept these divisions
The unity of the people is the standard
And will eliminate this age of pain
–

So tell me, what happened to respect?
And especially, to brotherliness and love?
What’s a society without regulation?
The chaos endangers the young men and women

Let’s leave room for opinions and differences
Without falling into bloodshed
And our hope is that the roots
of unity and belonging will be uncovered
