Temthal
Joseph Attieh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

حابب شي مرة انحتك تمثال
خصرك حجر متل اللي بدو يميل
وخايف بالحجر يوعى الجمال
وتجرح خدودك رفة الإزميل.

لااا لا لا لاتكوني حجر
لااا لا لا لاخيال وصور
كوني غضب، كوني عتب
كوني سبب عمري الطويل.

وإن جيت مرة ارسمك شي خيال
الخيال بدو نور حتى يميل
وئنديل عمري دموع زيتو ئلال
يمكن عاغفلة ينطفي الئنديل.

لااا لا لا لاتكوني حجر
لااا لا لا لاخيال وصور
كوني غضب، كوني عتب




كوني سبب عمري الطويل.

Overall Meaning

Joseph Attieh's song Temthal is a poetic expression of the singer's desire for his beloved to be more human and less like a statue. The lyrics paint a picture of a woman whose waist is as solid as a rock, as if it could tip like a boulder at any moment. However, the singer is scared that the stone will bruise her beauty and harm her delicate cheeks. He urges her not to become a statue, nor a figment of his imagination, but to be real and emotional in her own right.


The chorus repeats the plea not to be a stone, but rather to be a source of anger, rebuke, and passion. The singer would rather face her real emotions, even if they are negative, than for her to be absent and unfeeling. He describes the possibility of painting her in some idealized form, but knows that even that is reliant on her essence shining through. The song ends on a somber note, with the singer's eyes filling with tears, knowing that the flame of his love might snuff out at any moment.


Overall, the lyrics to Temthal are a poignant commentary on the nature of love and emotion. The singer recognizes that it is better to experience real emotions, even if they are difficult, than to be a hollow shell of a person. The analogy of a statue is a powerful one, suggesting that too much rigidity can be harmful both to oneself and to relationships. The song resonates with those who have experienced both the joy and pain of deep emotion.

حابب شي مرة انحتك تمثال
I want to sculpt you once into a statue


خصرك حجر متل اللي بدو يميل
Your waist is like a stone that wants to lean


وخايف بالحجر يوعى الجمال
Afraid that the stone will obscure your beauty


وتجرح خدودك رفة الإزميل
And the thread of fate may harm your cheeks


لااا لا لا لاتكوني حجر
No no don't be a stone


لااا لا لا لاخيال وصور
No no don't be imaginary or just a memory


كوني غضب، كوني عتب
Be anger, be dissatisfaction


كوني سبب عمري الطويل
Be the reason for my long life


وإن جيت مرة ارسمك شي خيال
If I ever draw you as an imagination


الخيال بدو نور حتى يميل
The imagination needs light to lean


وئنديل عمري دموع زيتو ئلال
And I shed tears like a flood of oil


يمكن عاغفلة ينطفي الئنديل
Maybe a slip can extinguish the light
