| Malibu Barbie and podgurl... please tell me those were jokes (even though they were racist and unfunny)... otherwise you really don't deserve to be listening to Shakira, who is so talented, and whose lyrics are so meaningful. | |

| The song is done in both spanish and arabic. Very well i think. This version is much better than the english/arabic one, but are both good. I dont speak either spanish or arabic, but i got most of the song down... im struggling with learning the arabic parts though :( but as Tracy said.. the song is about falling in love with a man and not being able to find anybody like him. | |

| i love this song!!! i love the arabian and labanese beats to it and the different language she used. once you get to learn the lyrics( especially in both languages) you wont be able to get enough. its about how she met this guy with captivating black eyes and she falls in love. it may sound corny, but its not. | |

Here is the real one: Yesterday I knew a sky without sun and a man with no land A saint in prison and a sad song with no leader ya he ya he ya la he And I knew your black eyes ya he ya he ya la he And now it seems that I could never live without them I’m asking heaven for just one desire To be able to live in your eyes I’ve already seen the whole world And I’m coming to say one thing to you Traveled from Bahrein, to Beirut Went from the north to the south pole And I could not find eyes like yours rabboussamai fikarrajaii fi ainaiha aralhayati ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni arjouka labbi labbi nidal Traveled from Bahrein, to Beirut Went from the north to the south pole And I could not find eyes like yours Yesterday I saw a woman go by underneath her camel A river of salt, a boat abandoned in the desert ya he ya he ya la he And I saw your black eyes go by ya he ya he ya la he And now it seems that I could never live without them I’m asking heaven for just one desire To be able to live in your eyes I’ve already seen the whole world And I’m coming to say one thing to you Traveled from Bahrein, to Beirut Went from the north to the south pole And I could not find eyes like yours I’m asking heaven for just one desire To be able to live in your eyes I’ve already seen the whole word And I’m coming to say one thing to you Traveled from Bahrein, to Beirut Went from the north to the south pole And I could not find eyes like yours | |

| This song is amazing. I've been forced to hear it hundreds of times as we're performing to it... but I still love it. It's deep, but still easy to find the meaning of -- which others have covered. I was just wondering, who is the male voice in this? | |
