Shakira – Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Asi) 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

And I have seen darker than ebony
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 is 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

رَبُّ السَّماءِ, فيك الرجاءِ
في عينيها أرى حياتي
آتِي إِلَيْكَ مِنْ هَذا الكَوْنِ
أرجوك, رَبِّي, لَبِّي نِدائي

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

And I have seen darker than ebony
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 is 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

رَبُّ السَّماءِ, فيك الرجاءِ
في عينيها أرى حياتي
آتِي إِلَيْكَ مِنْ هَذا الكَوْنِ
أرجوك, رَبِّي, لَبِّي نِدائي

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

رَبُّ السَّماءِ, فيك الرجاءِ
في عينيها أرى حياتي
آتِي إِلَيْكَ مِنْ هَذا الكَوْنِ
أرجوك, رَبِّي, لَبِّي نِدائي
من البحرين إلى بيروت

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; the seven oceans
There is 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
