Stare7, Sta3ed…

I was listening to “Humat al-Diar” just now, I was so taken in… and when it was finished, the very first image that came to my mind, was a sound i heard in my head saying…

Stare7,
Sta3ed…
yalla, etnen etnen 3al saff…

This is sad,

I am sad.

We owe this place years and years worth of apology.

    correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t the whole spiel part of ta7iet al 3alam?

    My school was next to an all girl school, and the principal always said “raise your voices when you’re singing , don’t you want the girls to hear you?”

    the stomping of the feet ritual also called for extra loud bangs to get the girls’ attention next door
