Wa Bah

Poems inspired by SNX's songs, retold by AIA Labs.
From the song
Wa Bah وا باه by SNX
A Moroccan dance exclamation. The title is the sound of wonder, like a wow. The voice asks where the dust was, where everything went, then says let us dance, again and again. A long run of cries of woe, the kind of wail that turns into celebration on a dance floor, fills the middle.
Deeper meaning
It is a pure invitation to dance. The lament-like wails are used as joy, which is common in the region: the sound of grief, danced to.
