Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
والسحر قد فاض من عينيك
والبدر يشكو من بهاك ويختفي
والورد يزهو من سنا خديك
والغصن يرقص شادياً ويختفي
ثم انحنى شوقاً على كفيك
تنوين يوماً بالوصال وتخلفي
هلا وفيت لكم أغار عليك
إني جريح تاه في جفنيك
بالله رقي واذكريني واعطفي
قد هام قلبي والفؤاد لديك
إني لأذكر عهدك والصفا
ويعلم الله أني لست ناسيك
The lyrics of Talal Maddah's song "Matha Aqool" is a beautiful representation of love and longing. The opening line "maadha aqool waqad hammat feek" translates to "what can I say when I already yearn for you." The singer expresses his love and desire for the person he is addressing, stating that the magic and beauty of that person drives him wild with passion. He speaks about the moon that complains because it can't compare to the person's radiance and the rose that glows in the light of their cheeks. The branches dance with joy, but then bow down with longing, unable to touch the person.
The singer then implores the person to be kind to him, to show him mercy, and to keep the promise of being together. He expresses his deep longing and wounds, which have left him lost in a sea of thoughts about the person. He asks them to remember and love him as much as he loves them. Finally, he concludes by saying that he knows he cannot forget the person, and that his heart is completely immersed in their love.

ماذا اقول وقد همت فيك
What can I say when my heart is filled with you?
والسحر قد فاض من عينيك
Your eyes are overflowing with magic
والبدر يشكو من بهاك ويختفي
The moon complains about your beauty and hides away
والورد يزهو من سنا خديك
The rose blooms in the radiance of your cheeks
والغصن يرقص شادياً ويختفي
The branch dances joyfully and disappears
ثم انحنى شوقاً على كفيك
Then it leans longingly on your palm
تنوين يوماً بالوصال وتخلفي
You intend one day to reunite and leave me behind
هلا وفيت لكم أغار عليك
Welcome and jealous of you, I have come
جودي بوصل وارحميني وانصفي
Be kind, show mercy, and treat me justly
إني جريح تاه في جفنيك
I am wounded and lost in your eyes
بالله رقي واذكريني واعطفي
By God, remember me and show me compassion
قد هام قلبي والفؤاد لديك
My heart has wandered, and my soul is with you
إني لأذكر عهدك والصفا
I remember our covenant and purity
ويعلم الله أني لست ناسيك
And God knows that I have not forgotten you
