Mayada El Hennawy ( Arabic ميادة الحناوي, DMG Mayyāda al-Ḥannāwī , also Mayadat Al-Hannâwî , Mayada El Hanawi , Mayada El Hennawi ; * October 8, 1959 in Aleppo ) is a Syrian singer.
El Hennawy grew up in a music-loving family. During a performance in a seaside resort hotel, where she sang Oum Kalsoum's Lessa Faker , the seventeen-year-old was discovered by Mohammed Abdel Wahab , who invited her to Cairo to train her as a singer.
In the following years Mohamed Al Mougui , Ahmed Rami and Riad El Sonbaty wrote songs for them. Most of her successful songs, including Sidi ana , Al-Hob elli kan , Ana baachaak and Saet Zamane , were composed by Baligh Hamdi , and for some he also wrote the lyrics. After she had to leave Egypt for alleged espionage, she returned there in the 1980s at the invitation of then Minister of Information Safwat al-Sharif .
