The Story

Once upon a time,
a humble woodcutter lived.
“Ali Baba”, his name,
He heard a phrase.
“Open Sesame”
and there opens a cave.

Filled with most precious of all,
gems and jewels and lots of gold.
With all the treasures in his reach,
he looks past it all, no room to greed.
He picks a single bag and leaves.

Weaved in the gulf... A path... A luminous sight...

Catching waves of pearly tunes,
swaying shores and joyful twilights...

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

To take a leap far from the past.

Live those moments and make them last.

Don't look so far behind,
A new light is just around.
The racing heartbeats inside me, I find,
are changing with each color and sound.
