Lamma Bada Yatathanna

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Lamma Bada Yatathanna (Arabic: لما بدا يتثنى) is an Arabic muwashshah of the Nahawand maqam.[1] The poem is considered one of the most famous Arabic pieces of its era.[2] In modern times, the song had versions recorded by Arabic artists including Fairuz, Souad Massi, Lena Chamamyan, Nabyla Maan, Hamza El Din and Sami Yusuf.

The author of the piece is disputed, and thought to be either Lisan al-Din Ibn al-Khatib (1313 - 1374 AD), which is the most plausible, or  [ar] (1793 - 1928 AD).
