Abstract

The aim of this analysis is to focus on figurative language. Figurative language is very interesting to analyze because many people have difficulty understanding the types of figurative language and the meaning of lines or lyrics by using figurative language. The purpose of this research is to study an analysis of figurative language in Maher Zains Album 2013. This study uses descriptive qualitative research, because the data is in the form of texts and Maher Zain song lyrics, which contain many types of figurative language. From 5 songs such as: Hold my hand, Insya Allah, for the rest of my life, thank you Allah, and Palestine will be free. From these five songs, the researcher found 10 figurative languages, namely: simile, metaphor, personification, litotes, antithesis, alliteration, euphemism, parallelism, hyperbole, and irony. The conclusion of this research is there are some kinds of figurative language used by Maher Zain in his song. This study is very useful for other researchers who want to do research in figurative language analysis with other literary works.
