This is a poem in standard Arabic performed by Iraqi musician Ilham al-Madfai.
Don't be sad
Tomorrow I will buy you the moon and a morning star
And a garden of flowers
Tomorrow, if I return from my journey
Tomorrow, if leaves sprout in my ribs of stone
But today I'm alone my darling
Alone my darling like a raindrop

Ilham al-Madfai - Like a Raindrop Like a raindrop I was alone darling Alone, my darling Like a raindrop |
Don't be sad
Tomorrow I will buy you the moon and a morning star
And a garden of flowers
Tomorrow, if I return from my journey
Tomorrow, if leaves sprout in my ribs of stone
But today I'm alone my darling
Alone my darling like a raindrop
إلهام المدفعي - قطرة المطر
كقطرة المطر كنت وحيدا ياحبيبتي
وحيدا ياحبيبتي كقطرة المطر
لاتحزني
سأشتري غدا لك القمر ونجمة الضحى
وبستانا من الزهر
غدا إذا عدت من السفر
غدا إذا أورق في ضلوعي الحجر
ولكنني اليوم وحيدا ياحبيبتي
وحيدا ياحبيبتي كقطرة المطر
