The Story

The deep unspoken, the vast devotion,
the blue in me I call my sea.
Its’ restless waves wrestle as an ocean
until its’ rage at last breaks free.
The silence has finally spoken,
I gaze too long, can’t even breathe.
Struck by awe in a world of slow motion.
Boundless, soundless, simply complete.

The Story

Somewhere underneath the moon,
lays a bed of pure blues.
Where the goddess of rainbow
paints a celestial heavenly view.
Crowned by cloudless skies
in a garden shaped for two,
the loveliest iris has finally bloomed
for no one on earth but you.

The Story

How wonderful it is to have a friend.
A hand to hold every now and then.
A haven to find quiet and peace,
A harbor to keep my heart at ease.
See my thoughts, not my face,
Hear my voice whenever I speak.
Stand by me, not in my place,
be my friend in my time of need.

- Derived from “Snippets of A Woman”, Sh. Souad Al-Sabah - 1986.

The Story

Grand and wondrous this splendid scene,
Standing still the immense blue sky.

lay a marvelous sight before your eyes.
A land like none you’ve ever seen,
where water sings and stallions fly.
A memory of what once has been
is written in stone for you and I.

The Story

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...

Every now and then, I think of you,
I call for your name as you cross my mind.

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.

Feeling the pulse of inspiration
rising in a world of color.
With all the thoughts of your imagination,
Drawing a story like no other.

This is the time to take a chance,
To take a leap far from the past.
Find your future in a tiny glance,
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.

THE STORY

Whispers of love are carried from the valley's embrace
Oh love, take me back to my homeland's grace
Oh love, you dance in the winds above
To the wallflower, the window, the photo, take me back, oh love
Oh, the yearning in my heart, it swells with each mile
To grow old, to be forgotten,
Take me home, to my land's cherished smile

- "Whispers of Love" is a distinguished Arabic song released by the Lebanese singer Fairuz in 1967, with lyrics and melodies by the Rahbani brothers. The song carries messages of inspiration and emotion, embodied by Fairuz as she sings on the shores of Beirut in the movie "The Guard's Daughter". Its lyrics speak of patriotism and nostalgia, embedding itself into the Arab cultural heritage, always reminding us of the beauty of art and creativity. It reinforces the patriotism values and pride to the Arab identity.
