Qariba

A Moroccan dance song about someone who is near. The first section is a call to sing for the night, with an invitation to raise your voice with us and a long chant. The core of the song is a moment of sensing. He says he felt the one who was about to fall, asks his friend, his sister, where she had been, and says that only after the shock did he realise she was close. A final cry to the heart closes it.
