Bambi is blessed to have received it abundantly. This being said, she is unable to find appropriate words, in any language, to describe her beautiful friendship with Nayla. Even without much to say today, she wants to wish her the happiest birthday possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nayla, Happy birthday! Enjoy being spoiled by your family and friends!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To the above, Bambi will send you her love across the miles while thanking you for being a sister to her, not just a close friend. Thanks for going out of your way to highlight her own birthday from far away \u2764\ufe0f. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you also for having enriched this blog with interviews and deep insights about the Beirut explosion and about Lebanon&#8217;s economic crisis respectively, as shown below. Bambi is also grateful for Rony&#8217;s thoughtful insights and kind comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In Arabic now: &#8220;Akbel el Mieh&#8221; (100 years and all of happiness)!<\/strong> <strong>Have fun!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To conclude this post, with her frog&#8217;s voice, it is time for Bambi to sing for Nayla now (sorry, it is a must :)). The first two melodies in French and Arabic respectively are for her birthday. As for the last three songs, they celebrate friendship, all in French and each in its own way.  Hope you will enjoy them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Happy Birthday (French Version)\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SPgLPGNsfH0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"\u0631\u0627\u063a\u0628 \u0639\u0644\u0627\u0645\u0629 - \u0631\u062d \u0637\u064a\u0631 \u062d\u0645\u0627\u0645 Ragheb Allama - Rah Taer Hamam\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HTCWKhAwo1I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Bernard Sauvat - L&#039;amiti\u00e9\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zyfg67Fo9is?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Nicola Ciccone Un ami (avec paroles)\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mzU-J-PgbqM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"J&#039;suis l\u00e0 - Francois Lachance - Lyrics\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/io6esY_mNbY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-bambi-039-s-afkar\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"mDeKZXHLus\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/11\/29\/an-interview-with-ms-nayla-awad-about-life-in-beirut-four-months-following-the-port-explosion\/\">An interview with Ms. Nayla Awad about life in Beirut four months following the port explosion<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;An interview with Ms. Nayla Awad about life in Beirut four months following the port explosion&#8221; &#8212; Bambi&#039;s Afkar\" src=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/11\/29\/an-interview-with-ms-nayla-awad-about-life-in-beirut-four-months-following-the-port-explosion\/embed\/#?secret=mDeKZXHLus\" data-secret=\"mDeKZXHLus\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-bambi-039-s-afkar\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"H4LRcHBDnj\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/03\/15\/hit-by-crises-twice-ms-nayla-awad-describes-what-it-is-like-to-live-in-lebanon\/\">Hit by crises twice: Ms. Nayla Awad describes what it is like to live in Lebanon<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Hit by crises twice: Ms. Nayla Awad describes what it is like to live in Lebanon&#8221; &#8212; Bambi&#039;s Afkar\" src=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/index.php\/2020\/03\/15\/hit-by-crises-twice-ms-nayla-awad-describes-what-it-is-like-to-live-in-lebanon\/embed\/#?secret=H4LRcHBDnj\" data-secret=\"H4LRcHBDnj\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Perhaps the greatest gift inf life is friendship?
