From the song
Helm حلم by SNX
The title means "dream." Short, atmospheric, in Egyptian dialect. Did you hear me, or do you still? They are afraid, but he is not afraid with you. The day she came on time, he liked the idea of freedom. From above, he says, the world looks very simple: a dream flying in the middle of the desert, palm trees all around, and still there is another life, another life. The rest is vocal calls and a breathy chorus.
Deeper meaning
A bird's-eye view as comfort: seen from high enough, troubles shrink. The desert and palms give it a sense of place. There are two uploads of this song; it is covered once here.
