I've been looking to add some timeless, classic Arabic love songs to my repertoire for weddings and engagement parties, and my awesome DJ colleagues were kind enough to give me some recommendations from their most-frequently requested songs!
This one comes from Studio Nada (instagram: studionadaphotography! Thank you, friend!
This bitter-sweet song of unrequited love, translated as "I will write your name, my Darling," has a beautiful melody that has nevertheless made it a traditional, classical favorite!
As the singer professes their undying love and loyalty for their capricious beloved, one can perhaps imagine the recipient's heart softening and warming towards this expression of dedication and selfless endurance.

English Translation:
I write your name, my darling, on the old tree
You write my name, my darling, on the sand in the street
I write your name, my darling, on the old tree
You wire my name, my darling, on the sand in the street
And tomorrow when it rains on the broken stories
Your name will remain, my darling
And mine will be erased
I talk about you, my darling, to the people of the neighborhood
You talk about me, my darling, to the stream of water
I talk about you, my darling, to the people of the neighborhood
You talk about me, my darling, to the stream of water
And when the night comes and people sit out under their lanterns
They will talk about you, my darling
And I will be forgotten
They will talk about you, my darling
And I will be forgotten
And you gave me a rose
I showed it to my friends
I hid it in my book then planted it on my pillow
I gave you a flower pot
You didn't take care of it
Until the present got lost
And you gave me a rose
I showed it to my friends
I hid it in my book then planted it on my pillow
I gave you a flower pot
You didn't take care of it
Until the present got lost
And you gave me a rose
I showed it to my friends
I hid it in my book then planted it on my pillow
I gave you a flower pot
You didn't take care of it
Until the present got lost
And you tell me you love me
You don't know how much
Since you love me so much, why oh why?
Do I write your name, my darling, on the old tree?
You write my name, my darling, on the sand in the street?
Do I write your name, my darling, on the old tree?
You write my name, my darling, on the sand in the street?
And tomorrow when it rains on the broken stories
Your name will remain, my darling
Your name will remain, my darling
And mine will be erased
Mine will be erased

Original lyrics:
بكتب اسمك يا حبيبي عالحور العتيق
تكتب اسمي يا حبيبي عرمل الطريق
بكتب اسمك يا حبيبي عالحور العتيق
تكتب اسمي يا حبيبي عرمل الطريق
بكرا بتشتي الدنيي عالقصص المجرحه
بيبقى اسمك يا حبيبي و اسمي بينمحى
يبقى اسمك يا حبيبي و اسمي بينمحى
بحكي عنك يا حبيبي لأهالي الحي
بتحكي عني يا حبيبي لنبعة المي
بحكي عنك يا حبيبي لأهالي الحي
بتحكي عني يا حبيبي لنبعة المي
و لما بيدور السهر تحت قناديل المسا
بيحكوا عنا يا حبيبي و أنا بانتسى
و هديتني وردة فرجيتا لصحابي
خبيتا بكتابي زرعتا عالمخده
هديتك مزهرية لا كنت تداريها
و لا تعتني فيها تاضاعت الهدية
و هديتني وردة فرجيتا لصحابي
خبيتا بكتابي زرعتا عالمخده
هديتك مزهرية لا كنت تداريها
و لا تعتني فيها تاضاعت الهدية
و بتقلي بتحبني ما بتعرف قديش
ما زالك بتحبني ليش دخلك ليش
