«اِللِّي يِطْلَعْ مِ الرَّاسْ يِوْصَلِ النَّاسْ»

The saying urges discretion: a thought or secret remains private while it is kept to oneself, but once spoken, it may travel beyond the intended listener and become widely known.

Its image of something leaving the head refers to a thought or secret being voiced, not to a physical act. It warns that confidential information can no longer be controlled once it is shared.

Say it to advise someone not to reveal a confidence or to explain why a sensitive matter should remain private. It may also gently rebuke someone who has disclosed information that was not theirs to share.
