Choreography
Hazihi Laylati (Classical Song)
Oriental style choreography to a classical song Hazihi Laylati. Originally by Oum Kalthoum, but this is a version produced by Mohamed Shahin from the album Keda Raqsa.
ATTENTION! This version of the song is produced by Egyptian dancer and teacher Mohamed Shahin. You can purchase it on his website (mohamedshahin.net) as a part of Keda Raqsa album. You will also be provided the professional translation of the lyrics along with your purchase.
Typically I try to choose songs that are available directly on iTunes and Spotify, but you should understand that many belly dance songs are not placed there. It's a common practice for professional dancers to produce their own CDs and sell them directly from their websites, or in-person during their workshops. This particular song is so beautiful, that I couldn't resist creating a choreography to it. Hope you'll enjoy dancing to it too! :)

Hazihy Laylaty
This is my night!
This is my night, and the dream of my life!
Between a bygone past and a future that begins!
You are the personification of love and wishes,
Then fill the glass of passion and serve me
In a moment, love will change remains
And the birds leave the nest
And mansions, which were in the past mansions
We will see as we see them: deserts
Life is going to make fun of us and she will laugh
So come on! Come on, I love you now more than ever
Twilight has expanded with us
He listened while the love filled our eyes
A question about the passion and response
And lyrics that melted in our mouths
He stopped long when he called me to him
To wipe the tears of my desire for you
So you approach me and takes my affection
Then close your eyes until you can see me
Our night is long, long
Because long meetings are always too short
Life is going to make fun of us and she will laugh
So come on! Come on, I love you now more than ever
Oh my beloved, love has become soft
So what if we have to support the weight of time
A chance that put the world at our feet
Which allowed our meeting and we ended
In seas where the wind moan
Where loses browser and convict
How the separation cursed our meeting
Every night when we meet in the morning
Oh love that stretched my insomnia
Oh traveling abroad with my heart
Life is going to make fun of us and she will laugh
So come on! Come on, I love you now more than ever
Vigil of desire in the beautiful eyes
Dream passion liked extend
Words of love if we do not say
The silence around us is about to pronounce
Oh my beloved, you are my wine and my cup
The desire of my thoughts and the joy of my privacy
In thee is my silence and in you is my speech and my whispers
The next day, in your love, before the last day
Appeared in the shadow of my evening companions of the night
Naouès and hugged the Khayam (Arabic and Persian poets)
They used the nectar of dreams
They loved the days and intoxicated
Lord where time held his youth,
If we leave, and mornings and evenings
Love will not see us after the one who embrace
We are the nights of passion and we are his mornings
My heart is filled with desire, and my whole being
This is my night! Oh time, so stop your race
Life is going to make fun of us and she will laugh
So come on! Come on,
I love you now more than ever.
