The Story

Oh, flower princess,
butterflies’ dearest and garden muse.
Mesmerized by your essence

Oh queen of the wild, Must I confess,

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

"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...

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

I wrote a letter to you my friend. 
So many letters that I never sent.
I think about you at the day’s end. 
The time that we had,
We were two birds of paradise.
My friend and I had a mind of our own, 
To run away in our own fly zone.
Back then my mind still wanders
living the times I still remember.
You said nothing lasts forever.
But we were happy together.
Like birds of paradise.
