“استحمِلي
..فاضِل مَفِيش
..وعشان نعيش
..لازم يصبّرنا الأمل
..وماتسأليش إيه اللي ممكن يتعمل
!!دا البدر عايش في السما بْيصبُر لحدّ ما يكتمَل
الحلم قرَّب.. قرَّبي
مدِّي إيديكي وْجرَّبي
..وماتِيْئَسِيشْ مِ الحبّ.. لمّا بيتولد ويعيش عفيف
..واطَّمِّني.. أنا مش ضعيف
..ومانيش جبان
..لكن بابان طيِّب قوي
..وباحبّ اكون ابسط من الناس كلها
..لكنْ فى نفسى باكون قَوِى
لا الدنيا تكسر قلبي يوم
..ولا حدّ فيها يهزِّني
..طبع السنابل يا حبيبتي يشدِّني
لو فاضيه... ترفع راسها فوق
!!لو فيها حَبّ... بتِنحِني
..استحمِلي”
― أشرف توفيق
