This page offers a translation into English of the Arabic song lyrics for Ed Hak, sung by Hanan on her Testahel CD. American dancers sometimes refer to this song as "the haha song". Hanan is one of the well-known artists of al jeel (generation music). Embraced by a younger generation of Egyptians who wanted their music fast and danceable, al jeel has become popular worldwide. Lyrics: A. Omar |
