El Far3i Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
استنيت عند كثير ناس .ليالي أحاكيها.و اتعرف على ماضيها.
بس انت من وين أطل عليك.صار بدي نشرة أخبار .تطمنّي عليك.تطمنّي عليك.تطمنّي.
و ما عاد ينفعني.تغنيت بكثير أمجاد أنا بالذل شاريها.رح أحكيها لكمان ناس.
انت من وين أطل عليك.صار بدي نشرة أخبار .تطمنّي عليك.تطمنّي عليك.تطمنّي.
.عليك.
و لا ايسيروا ايقولوا... تاب تاب.الي راح لبعيد لكن ما غاب.هذا الشعور الي بينتابنا ماغاب...
صرت أنا بدي منك.رجاء خاص.أنا بدي من الدنيا ثنين بس انتي و هالمرة.لا يصيروا ايقولوا.
تاب.الي راح لبعيد لكن ما غاب.هذا الشعور الي بينتابنا ماغاب...
ما غاب.ما غاب...
ولا خاب أنا ظني استنيت عند كثير ناس و الناس أتاريها!
The lyrics of El Far3i's "Tab" speak of a yearning for connection and a desire to understand the past of those around him. The singer has been waiting for a long time to speak with people and learn about their stories, but now he wants to know where a particular person comes from and whether they are okay. The repetition of "ma ghab" ("didn't disappear") and "ma khab ana zanni" ("my intuition didn't fail me") suggests that the singer has a strong sense of intuition and loyalty to those he cares about. The chorus repeats the phrase "tab, tab" ("repent, repent"), implying that the singer may be seeking redemption or forgiveness for past mistakes.
The second verse adds another layer to the song's themes, as the singer says that he has achieved many things but has also relinquished his dignity in the process. He wants to tell more people about this experience, but he needs to know that the person he is addressing is safe and secure. The final section of the song is a direct plea to this person, asking them to stay with him and not disappear, so that they will not be subject to gossip or judgment. Throughout the song, the singer's ambiguous relationship to the person he is addressing remains unresolved, but the emotions that drive his words are palpable.

My guess was not wrong. I'll wake up from the dream, scrutinize the matter, so that, because, I don't want my guess to be wrong.

And let them not say... He repented, he repented. He who goes far away but never disappears. This feeling that overcomes us, never disappeared.

But idle talk spread around.
