See the Rise Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
أنا يوماتى حبيبتى بخونك
لما تغيبي بغازل طيفك
ولما تجينى بدوب في عيونك
أيوة بخونك مع بسماتك
مع رصات الدر في سنونك
أيوة بخونك بيك وبلاكي
وآسف جداً إنى بخونك
ولما تكوني بعيدة وسارحة
أيوة بخونك مع خصلاتك
وشعرك موجة ليلي الطامحة
أيوة بخونك وإنتى قوامك
هد قوام المهرة الجامحة
أيوة بخونك وعارف إنك
طيبة وإنك ديمة مسامحة
أنا لو خنتك مع زول غيرك
إلاّ أكون أنا واحد غيري
وإلاّيكون القلب إتبدل
وفكري إتغير من تفكيري
وإلاّ يكون الزمن إتحول
وإلاّ أكون موّت ضميري
أنا لو خنتك مع نظراتك
ما من حقك إنو تغيري
The lyrics to See the Rise's song Self Portrait express feelings of guilt and deceit in a romantic relationship. The singer confesses to lying and cheating on their loved one, even when they are not physically present. The use of repetition in the line "أيوة بخونك" (Yes, I'm cheating on you) emphasizes their shame and regret. The singer acknowledges their partner's good qualities and forgiveness, but ultimately recognizes that their own actions are a betrayal of trust.
The song's title, Self Portrait, can be interpreted as a reflection of the singer's own flawed character and behavior. The lyrics suggest that the act of cheating is not a reflection of their partner's worth, but rather a reflection of their own weakness and dishonesty. The use of Arabic language adds another layer of cultural context to the song, perhaps commenting on societal expectations and norms surrounding relationships and fidelity.
Overall, the lyrics to Self Portrait are a complex and introspective examination of infidelity and its consequences on both the cheater and the cheated.

أنا كذبت عليك يا غالية
I lied to you, my dear
أنا يوماتى حبيبتي بخونك
I cheat on you, my love, every day
لما تغيبي بغازل طيفك
When you're gone, I flirt with your ghost
ولما تجيني بدوب في عيونك
And when you come to me, I melt in your eyes
أيوة بخونك مع بسماتك
Yes, I cheat on you even with your smile
مع رصات الدر في سنونك
With the pearls in your teeth
أيوة بخونك بيك وبلاكي
Yes, I cheat on you with you and your shadow
وآسف جداً إنى بخونك
And I am truly sorry for cheating on you
أيوة بخونك بيني وبينك
Yes, I cheat on you behind your back
ولما تكوني بعيدة وسارحة
And when you are far away and lost
أيوة بخونك مع خصلاتك
Yes, I cheat on you with your locks of hair
وشعرك موجة ليلي الطامحة
And your hair is an aspiring wave of the night
أيوة بخونك وإنتى قوامك
Yes, I cheat on you even with your figure
هد قوام المهرة الجامحة
A figure like the wild mare
أيوة بخونك وعارف إنك
Yes, I cheat on you, and I know you
طيبة وإنك ديمة مسامحة
That you are kind and always forgive
أنا لو خنتك مع زول غيرك
If I cheated on you with someone else
إلاّ أكون أنا واحد غيري
I would only be different from myself
وإلاّ يكون القلب إتبدل
Or my heart would have changed
وفكري إتغير من تفكيري
And my thoughts would have diverged from my own
وإلاّ يكون الزمن إتحول
Or time itself would have changed
وإلاّ أكون موّت ضميري
Or my conscience would have died
أنا لو خنتك مع نظراتك
If I cheated on you with your glances
ما من حقك إنو تغيري
You have no right to change
