Oh Life spin us

Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
'till they forget their names and we forget our names
 
Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
'till they forget their names and we forget our names
 
Come, to hide from the aging's path
and if they grow up we stay young
Come, to hide from the aging's path
and if they grow up we stay young
 
they asked us "where were you?"...and "why you didn't age!"
; we tell them we forgot
they asked us "where were you?"...and "why you didn't age!"
; we tell them we forgot
And who calls people... to age
And who calls people... to age
he came and forgot to call us (to age)
 
Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
Oh life spin us and keep spinning us
'till they forget their names and we forget our names
 
O my night O my night... O my night O my night...
O my night O my night...
 
Oh Life spin us, spin and spin, our date will be in the holidays
'till the sparrow grows and bricks redden
Oh Life spin us, spin and spin our date will be in the holidays
'till the sparrow grows and bricks redden
 
and this morning who was waiting... sitting in the streams
now we just had came
and this morning who was waiting... sitting in the streams
now we just had came
 
Oh my beloved and the night... they had gone in the night's sea
Oh my beloved and the night... they had gone in the night's sea
and they forgot me at the port
 
Oh Life spin us and keep spinning us
Oh Life spin us and keep spinning us
'till they forget their names, and we forget ours
 
Oh Life spin us and keep spinning us
Oh Life spin us and keep spinning us
'till they forget their names, and we forget ours

What a beautiful translation. One minor typo in the English, it should be “spin” not “spine.” Easily fixed, and thank you so much for doing the translation!

The famous song "Samra Yamma Oyoon wisa" is missing in the list. Can it be added and translated?
