Tachta9tini Meaning & Lyrics (Manel Amara)
Manel Amara sings about everyone watching and talking. She declares she is happy and doesn’t care. She praises God for protection with the Khamsa symbol.
Kulluhā Tabtatabt ‘alaynāEveryone’s watching us.
Kulluhā TaḥkīEveryone’s talking,
‘alaynāabout us.
Kulluhā Tafakkar ‘alaynāEveryone’s thinking about us.
Kulluhā TashtāqtinīEveryone’s longing for me.
Kullū Fāḍī Kān Al-ḍaḥkah Allatī TuzahīnāIt’s all empty, it was the laughter that made us shine.
Barshā Kawāzī Tī Billāh Haz ‘alaynāSo many troubles, oh God, lift them off us.
Qalbī RāḍīMy heart’s content.
Ḥamdāllah Rabbī Ḥāmīnā Khamsah Wālkhmys ‘alaynāPraise God, our Lord’s protecting us with the ‘Khamsa’ symbol.
Wa-khamsah Fī ‘ayn Allatī ‘ass ‘alaynāAnd a ‘Khamsa’ in the eye of whoever’s watching us.
Sa’īdah Fī Ḥālī Wa-anā Mālī Yā SayyidīI’m happy as I am, and I don’t care, sir.
KāfūnKafoun.
