«اِلْمِغَنِّي يِغَنِّي، وِكُلِّ مَنْهُو عَلَى مَعْنَاهْ يِسَالْ»

A performer offers words to everyone at once, yet each person in the audience seeks in them his own concern, bending the song toward private worries, hopes, or longings. The verb here means 'asks' or 'seeks,' not 'flows.' The listener's pleasure comes from that private reading, not the singer's intent.

More broadly, the saying observes that people interpret shared speech through their own situations. A general remark becomes personal to whoever recognizes himself in it, so one utterance can carry as many meanings as there are people listening.

Suits moments when one message, story, or remark draws different reactions because each listener applies it to personal circumstances. It can gently note that a speaker cannot control interpretation, or tease someone who takes a general comment personally.
