Wow! The audio quality is amazing. I've never heard the instruments this clearly before. Amazing voice and a great hit. Thanks for sharing
This is from a high quality rip of Memory Lane (2005), the Ghost Capital blog has it.
Lyrics (translation partially sourced from www.learnassyrian.com/songs/AssyrianLyrics-All.pdf - corrections welcome):
'Doogleh Shapireh' ('Beautiful Lies')
La tanet, la tanet atin qatee keh bayit
(Don't say, don't say that you love me)
Kheena dooglookh plitloon bessa midr'eh moo buyit
(Your lies have come to the surface, quit it, what do you want?)
Hal adi urpa gaheh atin qatee qowillokh
(Four times till now you have promised me)
Leh odit khubra nasheh eena qamoo monsheelokh
(You don't do what people say / How did you forget?) [x2]
Ah, besqada min danneh khubreh ateeqeh
(Ah, I remember those old words)
Anneh doogleh shapireh khayina l'libbee
(Those beautiful lies, they were deceivers to my heart)
Alaha qa daha libba at wod kha chara
(God, create a remedy for this heart) [x2]
Hal eman bet qablana bassa kheena khazyana
(Until when will I accept this / Enough, I tell you)
Youmanee wara'b khisha ena qamoo peshana
(My days have gone in suffering / But then, why should I go on living) [x2]
And here's another source for the lyrics from AssyrianLyrics.com:

The main difference being this line:
"Hal adi urpa gaheh atin qatee qobillokh" which I think is "atin qatee qowillokh" [you have promised me].
