Literally: His baby bird flew away from him

Said about someone who has lost his mind. When referring to a woman, it is said that "tar liha lfryekh". A close alternative to this expression is "harb lih(a)", meaning that "his/hers is an escaped one" - his or hers referring to the baby bird. When someone makes you laugh, it is customary to tell him that "harrabtih lia", meaning that "you made it escape from me".
