Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Louken aata rabi el youm ma rani n'ghani fel demaat
Kitlaquit maa zahri quali quadouni oua tmer mat

Kayen liyabki aala zahrou
Kayen lihayabki fouq quabrou
Kayen lichakh fi saghrou
Krahna men hadh el h'yat

Kayen liyabki aala zahrou
Kayen lihayabki fouq quabrou
Kayen lichakh fi saghrou,
Telfoulna lawquat

Ki tlaqua el haq maa el batal ma chak fi l'khatoua
El batel khlass alqua el hal bach yahkam ghedoua

Bayen rak aayen qualou,
Hfit mel machyane ou zad lou,
Dahri lik naamallou
Kissaldj lahssane

Kayen liyabki aala zahrou
Kayen lihayabki fouq quabrou
Kayen lichakh fi saghrou,
Telfoulna lawquat

Yak el haq ma chak fi quoualou wa tlaa fouq dahrou
Kemal el nass essbah harou oua b'daou yahadrou

Kayen liyabki aala zahrou
Kayen lihayabki fouq quabrou
Kayen lichakh fi saghrou
Krahna men hadh el h'yat
Kayen liyabki aala zahrou
Kayen lihayabki fouq quabrou
Kayen lichakh fi saghrou,
Telfoulna lawquat

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Souad Massi's song Le Bien Et Le Mal speak to the contrast between good and evil. The opening lines highlight the struggle many face between the day and the night, the light and the dark. The lyrics suggest that if one were to give in to evil, then they would be consumed by it and meet their end. The chorus further emphasizes this contrast by describing those who cry over beauty but also those who cry over death. In essence, the song suggests that we all have to choose between good and evil and that our choices ultimately determine our fate.


The second verse reinforces that point by stating that those who stand for truth will be judged by their actions. The final verse then goes on to say that those who speak the truth will be heard and that we must all strive to be like them. The song's overall message is one of hope - that even in the face of evil and darkness, good can still triumph if we choose to fight it.


Overall, Souad Massi's song Le Bien Et Le Mal is a beautiful and haunting meditation on the eternal struggle between good and evil. With its powerful lyrics and haunting melody, the song reminds us that the choices we make in life ultimately determine our fate.

Bıkmadan, usanmadan defalarca dinledim, dinliyorum. Üzücü sözleri olsada rahatlatıcı bir etkisi var. Katılıyorum size Sena hanım. Birde "Bel Alb" şarkısını dinleyin, tavsiye ederim.
