Vocab:

My morning coffee- 2ahwity el sabaa7iyya قَهْوِتي الصَّباحِيَّة

She runsaway- btuhrob بْتُهْرُب

It reminded me- zakkarni ذَكَّرْني

Airport- mataar مَطار

I ranaway- harabet هَرَبِت

Behind me- waraay وَراي

Her hair is white- sha3erha abyad شَعِرْها أبْيَض

I thank her- batshakkarha بَتْشَكَّرْها

I wear it- balbiso بَلْبِسُه

Freedom- 7urriyya حُرِّيَّة

I answer her- bajaawibha بَجاوِبْها

Honesty- saraa7a صَراحَة

She is moved- btit2assar بْتِتْأثَّر

She holds- btimsik بْتِمْسِك

She promises me- btiw3edni بْتِوْعِدْني

From now on- min hown ou raayi7 مِن هون و رايِح

I don’t believe- ana ma basaddi2 أنا ما بَصَدِّق

My luck- 7azzi حَظِّي

I hug her- ba7donha بَحْضُنْها

A sign- ishaara إشارَة
