Lines explained
“انا ابن المطاريد خليك جوه”
Ana ibn el matarid khalik gowa
I am the son of the outcasts, stay inside
The phrase "ابن المطاريد" (ibn el matarid) literally means 'son of the outcasts' or 'son of the banished'. It implies someone who comes from a marginalized or tough background, suggesting resilience and a street-smart attitude.
“الصحاب اللي مش سالكين لينا”
El sahaba elly mesh salkin leina
The friends who are not sincere with us
The phrase "مش سالكين لينا" (mesh salkin leina) means 'not sincere with us' or 'not straight with us'. It refers to friends who are not trustworthy or have ulterior motives.
“اشكالهم ضلة الله المعين”
Ashkalhom dalla Allah el mo'in
Their forms are shadows, God is the helper
The line "اشكالهم ضلة الله المعين" (ashkalhom dalla Allah el mo'in) is a bit complex. "ضلة" (dalla) means 'shadow' or 'misguidance'. Combined with "الله المعين" (Allah el mo'in - God the helper), it can imply that these people are like shadows or a source of misguidance, but ultimately God is the true helper against their negative influence.
