LYRICS
as beautiful as any fruit
a wild weed, pulled like a tooth
from the sand, by the hand of a child, deadly

deadly to the spider who
spins his web in Zaatari, at the edge
of the Champs-Élysées where the refugees play

and nearby a woman cries
for her daughter, but the child is fine
she's crouching where she hides
and with her fingers snaps silk lines

the spider feels the web he's spun
gradually come undone
but in the sun’s heat
he's too weak to weave a new one

عنكبوت وحيد حزين
اتخرّب بيتو المسكين
بس نار الشمس مش رح بتدوم
عمرها لتصل لغيوم


the girl calls out so her mother can hear
to spare her any more fear
while the warm wind moans over white tent homes

and as they embrace, the spider finds a hiding place
a place that could be the end
if he does not find strength again

little girl you did no wrong
but soon you'll understand the songs
your mother sings, when she's sad
remembering the home she had

little spider your home is gone
you don't know how you'll carry on
but life is sweet and silk is strong
the sun won't burn for long


عنكبوت وحيد حزين
اتخرّب بيتو المسكين
بس نار الشمس مش رح بتدوم
عمرها لتصل لغيوم


بنعمرها عن قريب
