Interpretation

The song "Mama (Ana Ahabak)" is translated as, "Mom (I Love you)." "Ana Ahabak" is Arabic for "I Love You." The song was written after the terrorist attack on the American World Trade Centers. The song is about the confusion of war.

Zieh nicht so an meiner HandWieso drückst du mich an die Wand? Warum geh'n die Lichter aus?

Ich kann kaum noch etwas seh'nSag, wieso müssen wir hier steh'n? Warum geh'n wir nicht nach Haus?

Translated, this means:

Don´t tear my hand,why do you push me to the wall?and who switched out the lights?I can´t hardly see anything,tell me, why do we have to stay here?why don´t we go home?
