About this song:
I have been playing around with a music-making program named Garage Band for a while and wrote a few song demos that I thought I would record properly after the confinement, which took longer than I expected, so I figured I might just have to release a song and see the effect it could make on people. I also discovered a program online for 2D animation named Pencil 2D, so I dug into a few tutorials and went on animating my illustrations. I have always dreamed to have time to do this kind of animation work. With my daily job, my music and my kids, I never could find that time. Now there is plenty of time on my hands. I try to use this long confinement wisely rather than just stay on my phone. In light of what’s happening in Lebanon now, we all have a constant urge to just run away, but all we can do is continue living in our respective bubbles, with our chosen people…

يا ريت
عم بحلم عمّر عرزال
لا عالخاطر ولا عالبال
لا إلو مستقبل ولا ماضي
مفتوح عمية إحتمال
يا ريت
ببنيه على كوكب تاني
لا في تراب ولا في دهب
بيساع الناس الحلوين
اللي بحبن بلا سبب
يا ريت
كل واحد(وحده) عندو قصّه
يا بأوّلا يا بينصّا
في ناس بتلعب دورا
وفي ناس بتنسى نصّا
يا ريت
I Wish
I dream of building a treehouse
Unexpected like a sudden idea
With no future and no past
Open to a hundred possibilities
I wish...
I will build it on another planet
With no sand and no gold
Enough for all the beautiful people
That I love for no reason
I wish...
Each man/woman has a story
In its beginning or its middle
Some play their roles
Others forget their lines
I wish...
Je Rêve
Je rêve de construire une cabane
Inattendue comme une idée soudaine
Sans avenir ni passé
Ouverte à une centaine de possibilités
Je rêve...
Je vais la construire sur une autre planète
Sans sable et sans or
Pour acceuillir toutes les belles personnes
Que j'aime sans raison
Je rêve...
A Chacun / chacune son histoire
Au début ou bien au milieu
Certains jouent leurs rôles
D'autres oublient leurs lignes
Je rêve...
