Lamma Bada Yatathanna

Lamma Bada Yatathanna (Arabic: لما بدا يتثنى) is an Arabic muwashshah of the Nahawand maqam.[1][2] The poem is considered one of the most famous Arabic pieces of its era[3], yet, it's origin comes from Al-Andalus, being this a Muwashshah or Andalusian Moaxaja.

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 Muhammad Abdulrahim Al-Maslub [ar] (1793 - 1828 AD).
