Ma Sar
Haifa Wehbe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
عم تحرق اسرار
و دقت قلبي تقول
طفي طفي نار
عتمة ليل ونهار
عم تحرق اسرار
و دقت قلبي تقول
همسة حب
ودار من كلمة المشوار
وشمعة جديدة تقول
طفي طفي نار
قولي يا ليل
شو بدي اقول
حبي مش معقول
الحب يا عين نظرة عين
خلى ليلي يطول
قلي بعد منك وعد
ليلك هنا
قلي انا بحبك
قلي بعد
سمعني ضيعني ولعني
ليلك هنا
حبيبي ما صار
These lyrics are from Haifa Wehbe's song "Ma Sar" (What Happened). The song is primarily about a love that has gone wrong, causing pain and confusion for the singer.
The first verse begins with the repetition of "عتمة ليل ونهار" (Darkness of night and day) and how it is burning secrets. This darkness symbolizes the singer's emotional turmoil and how they feel consumed by their hidden emotions. The heart beats with the plea to extinguish the fire of pain and suffering.
The second verse carries on the theme of darkness and burning secrets. The heart keeps beating, urging the pain to be alleviated. It seems that the singer's relationship or love has caused them great distress and they desperately want it to end.
In the third verse, there is a mention of a whisper of love and a new candle that signifies hope. However, the plea to extinguish the fire remains, indicating that even though there might be a glimmer of hope, the pain still lingers.
The final verse addresses the night, asking what the singer should say. Their love seems incomprehensible and overwhelming. They express that love can be seen in someone's eyes and it causes the night to feel never-ending, emphasizing the weight of their emotions. The singer asks for reassurance and wants their beloved to promise to be with them and not leave. The phrase "ليلك هنا" (Your night is here) implies the singer's longing for their love to be present and for their love to be reciprocated. Despite the pain and confusion, it seems that the singer cannot let go of their love just yet.
Overall, these lyrics paint a picture of a love that has become complicated and hurtful. The darkness and secrets intensify the emotional turmoil the singer is experiencing, and despite a whisper of hope, the pain still persists, leaving them longing for reassurance and clarity.
