The Story

Oh the way you sway..
Won’t you dance with me..
Like a flower at bay..
In the breeze, swing with ease..
Take me away.. In the way you sway..
Stay with me.. Dance with me..
Sway me more..
There is no one but you..
My love.. The one I adore..

- Derived from a famous traditional Arabic Andalusian Muwashah (A school of poetry) belonging to the poetic style of “Nahawand”. It was considered by some critics as the most famous Muwashah, for its revolutionary role against the traditional structure and artistic style of Arabic poetry

The Story

Every now and then, I think of you,
I call for your name as you cross my mind.
I find myself at that same place
where we met for the first time.
You’re not there when I stand
waiting for you at your door.
I hear the silence loud and grand
chasing the memories I’m looking for.

- Derived from a song written by Sulayman Almudeef. Performed by Mohamed Ali Abdulla

The Story

In the good times and the bad I see,
a flower in red delightfully speaks.
The dancing petals gracefully bloom,
under the bright sun and the luminous moon.
An endless symphony
of what life has to share.
What we have for each other is
more than a flower affair.

- Derived from a song written by Ali Alsharqawi and Fathiya Ajlan.

The Story

My friend, I am not what I seem. Seeming is but a garment I wear - a care-woven garment that protects me from thy questionings and thee from my negligence. The “I” in me, my friend, dwells in the house of silence, and therein it shall remain forevermore, unperceived, unapproachable.

The Story

The day has come, time has passed...
The damage is done, too much, too fast..
No air to breathe.. No colors to see...
No waves to catch... No shores, No seas...

Now open your eyes, it was all a dream,
Look high to the sky, see the birds on trees...
Let’s keep them safe, let’s make it last,
The future is ours, and here is the path..

The Story

"White Rainbow while you and me...” is a verse recited on a couple’s Jelwa (pre-wedding traditional party) while guests hold colorful, gold-embellished pieces of fabrics over their heads. Most guests sing along not knowing that the Arabic song has this English opening line.

Even though white rainbows do not actually exist, blending all of the rainbow colors would result in white. Hence, exchanging colorful fabrics over the couple’s heads to wish them a happy, colorful life just like a rainbow...

and I am certain I will see it again..

The Story

New faces, different places,
is all I see in the midst of this mist ...
Bits and pieces wipe the traces of my footprints
on the remains of sand and fog ...
Slowly but surely shines a ray of hope ...
Making threads of unity
to weave my enchantment cloak ...
I am positive, I am strong,
I am the future of what my past has evoked.

The sweet dew... Of times gone by...
The silent promises... Of day and night...
And still tomorrow has the brightest sky...
In every passing wish... In every flicker of light...

Oh Bahrain...
The rhythm of heartbeats ... Making us complete...
Weaved in the gulf... A path... A luminous sight...
Where the sun rises, and the souls dive...
Catching waves of pearly tunes,
swaying shores and joyful twilights...

Oh can you see... The apple of my eye...
My Bahrain...

The Story

Hiding thought, afraid of action.
To be or not to be, is not the question.
Everyone is unique without any exception
with stories to be told, and dots needing connection.

Under the blue sky we’ll unfold.
Seeing the truth, we are strong, we are bold.
Just wait and see, set your mind free,
and you’ll be, everything you are meant to be.
