This beautiful song is like a double tribute: first and foremost, to Mr. Elias Rahbani, (composer, writer, and arranger) and, last but not least, to Beirut. Sadly, Lebanon lost the artistic giant, Mr. Elias Rahbani, to Covid-19 on January 4th, 2021 (https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/lebanese-composer-lyricist-elias-rahbani-dies-82-75036081). May his memory be eternal and MANY thanks to him for having enriched his country’s cultural life. Bravo to Rodge as well as to Ms. Pascale Sakr for this charming interpretation. The scenes from Beirut and Lebanon are very charming…
Absoluely inspiring to watch! Such beautiful images❤? one day I hope to go there to magical Beirut.??✨
Wow–Dank u well/Thank you, Salome. It would be a dream come true ❤️ (yes one day!)! Bambi is happy you enjoyed this :).
I can feel the longing and the nostalgia in this song. Beautiful.
True– it is about the nostalgia and longing for the beautiful days, nights, and even for the moon of Beirut. The latter is in a very bad shape but hopefully brighter days will shine again. This being said, Bambi is happy you like the song.
Even the moon seems to look different. That’s deep. Somehow the moon seems to reflect the deeper parts of the psyche.
Wish you a beautiful Sunday!
Interesting comment (now thinking of all the poems and songs referring to the moon and its light). Mind you, related to the moon, in Lebanon when someone is beautiful or handsome (a baby especially but also said for adult men, women, etc.), we say they are beautiful like the moon. Happy Sunday too :)!
