“وَقْت الشِّدَّه مِين يِفْضَل بَسّ لِيك؟”

WA'T ESH-SHIDDA MEEN YIFDAL BASS LEEK?

In times of hardship, who remains just for you?

This line highlights the central theme: true friends are revealed not in good times, but when life gets difficult. It's a common sentiment in many cultures.

“واللِّي صانّا... فَوْق راسْنا”

WAL-LI SANA... FAW' RASNA

And he who protected us... is above our heads

The phrase 'above our heads' (faw' rasna) is an Egyptian idiom meaning someone is highly respected, honored, and cherished, indicating deep gratitude and esteem.

“قُلْت لُه يا صاحْبي فات السُّؤال”

QULT LU YA SAHBI FAT ES-SU'AL

I told him, 'My friend, the question has passed'

When the singer says 'the question has passed,' it implies that the friend's chance to prove loyalty has gone, and their return is now too late or irrelevant after their earlier abandonment.
