"يا أَخي أَيْن أَنْتَ؟"

Translation: My brother, where are you?

[JamesTWils]

So, how do I say I am a man of constant sorrow?

[Salbionb]

I came here just to make sure this comment existed.

[Sikeryali]

أنا رجل حزن الدائم

[Hendrik14023]

Yes, great movie! We formed a band (the Bluegrass Guerilla) just to play that kind of music. OK, next concert we will do Man of Constant Sorrow in Arabic.

[6tiri]

O brother, where art thou?

[Sikeryali]

أنا في قلبك

[momobrika]

aw

[Popesatoa]

I am in Qlbk. Is that the right translation?

[palimpsest123]

why not "my brother where are you?"

[Sikeryali]

That's another accepted translation & يا اخي is literally 'o my brother' but commonly used to address brother.

[Ian144580]

I tried "Oh my brother where are you" just to see if it was accepted. Alas.

[-Joyia-]

That's exactly what I was thinking.

[Dus564971]

I translated like this and is was also accepted

[StevenWest12]

One of the few instances where "يا" may still be translated as "O" :D

[DorBaron01]

Why أنْتَ sounds more like ْأنْت?

[castelito1]

I read somewhere that they dont pronounce the last "vowel" properly

[castelito1]

If you write "ata" you would pronounce "at". But if you write "ataa", then you will pronounce the "a" in the end

[ZiyanQures]

Why is there yaa at the beginning?

[Ibraahiim13]

It's like "O my brother"

[Slitinsky]

Great movie by the Cohn brothers.

[LuciaVynn]

What a headache

[jumaana4]

What's different between where are you my brother? Or my brother where are you?

[Sol110174]

A same thing..both acceptable...

[ShanawazSheikh]

O brother, where art thou?
