[LordJamesCromwell]

@TheOrientalEast I know I'm not the person you were talking with, but would you please recommend me some arabic music?, because I was searching on YouTube but I found few songs. Your effort and time would be very appreciated.

[y0utubem]

i'm turkish and i really don't know why i love this song so much ! it touched my heart. maybe the reason is we were one country we were ottomans not so long time ago :)

[sanninlover]

@y0utubem

Maybe it touched your heart because it is a sort of spiritual/religious song.

Greetings form Tunisia(Libya's neighbour), a country who was ruled by a Turkish dynasty until 1957. :)

Good luck my Libyan brothers. May your future become as good as it is possible !

يا من خلقت الورا من ظلمة العدمي يا دا البقاء الغنا و الجود و الكرم يا عالم الغيب يا من لا شريك له يا دا العطاء و النداء يا بارئي النسم ياسامع لدعاء المضطر يا املي يا واحد احد يا واهب النعم انت العليم انت العليم انت العليم و القضاء قدري فامنن و بارك و توب اني لدو عجلي فقد امرت بان ندعوك يا سندي و قد وعدت اجبنا ذا العطا العلمي

[nofreedom4racists]

Masha Allah, The virtue and morality promoted by Islam unite the good people of the Eastern Arab and Non Arab world. Peace be to the people of Libya and Arabia from a non Arab Muslim. I am responsible for you. you are responsible for me.

[nofreedom4racists]

Libya should remain sovereign. The Rebels do not want NATO help. NATO knows it can't topple Gaddafi without ground forces. NATO wants to put Gaddafi in a tight spot to get oil concessions from him. Long live a free, sovereign Libya. The days of Umar el Mukhtar. Rebels can without NATO help.

Libya is the best in this kind of music

[simplyrema]

Allah. how much this music reminded me of Libya. I miss my beautiful country so much. Thank you for uploading this video for us. :)

[TheSparkFire]

nice tune

[EastAsiandictator]

I love this song

[faroutdudes5]

Media propaganda has corrupted so many americans into thinking that muslim and arab countries are bad people, Because they caused 9/11...

How do we know they caused 9/11?

I don't know that, They never said,"MUSLIM PEOPLE KILLED OUR TWIN TOWERS!" i never heard that in the news so stfu dumb news.

[kittycatcarley]

@faroutdudes5 So, the tapes from the planes where the terrorists shouted "allahuakbar" where fabricated. Right. I love Muslims, but extremist Muslim terrorists DID bomb the twin towers. Not all Muslims are extremists.

[dooli1981]

@kittycatcarley: Yes you're right "not all Muslims are extremists", out of 1billion+ Muslims we're talking about 0.00000001% who are terrorists, but they seem to be getting 99.9% of media air time! How unfair. Truth be told, a crazy bearded man burning a flag makes better "news" than a peaceful march with Muslims carrying banners saying things like "Islam is peace" etc.

[kittycatcarley]

@dooli1981 i agree

[issareign]

@kittycatcarley the american government obviously caused 9/11, or at the very least allowed it to happen. pull your head out of your ass and look at the evidence, its plain as day. america killed, and continues to kill more people then any other nation in the history of mankind. even hitler got his ideas from american eugenics whore margret sanger. dumbass american...

[kittycatcarley]

@issareign Woooowwwwww..... You are one sad conspiracy theorist. Your little beef against America doesn't change the facts that your "theory" is 100% bullshit.

Peace, love <3, have fun in your imaginary world sweetheart.

[issareign]

@kittycatcarley yea, and youre a mental midget, simpleton, moron, right? i guess the former italian president, prime minister of japan, and many other scholars, you know, with education, something you lack, are also all conspiracy theorist? lol i guess you're a coincidence theorist, because three skyscrapers collapsing from 2 planes is perfectly normal. moron.

[aan3]

@faroutdudes5

Agree. This just shows you that music is a world language. Doesn't matter if don't understand the words its enjoyable! Its funny people and countries don't fight or make war when it comes to music. Instruments and melodies like this show the whole world that Arab countries are human begins too like everyone else. And also they make good music!

[neolegionar]

@faroutdudes5 Jews did it, the entire world knows that or should know. They control media & everything

[kidmedia1]

@faroutdudes5

HELLO THERE EVERYONE.

MY NAME IS BEN AND AM A YEMEN JEW FROM ISRAEL' AND AM ISRAELI :)

MY ROOTS ARE COMING FROM YEMEN AND I LIKE ARABIC MUSIC VERY MUCH AND I HAVE SOME ARAB FRIENDS. THE R NOT BAD'ITS JUST A DIFFRENT CULTURE AND U HAVE TO LERAN THE ARABIC CULTURE AND EVERYTHING IS OK. LETS MAKE PEACE PPL... 'LEAVE THE WARS FOR OTHERS BROTHERS.

[tyty1794]

@faroutdudes5 Corrupted ? You are despicable people. I've seen reports of tortured, starved, enslaved, scalded, domestic servants coming from Arab countries all my life. You routinely treat the less fortunate as slaves - especially if they are not Arab or muslim. I've seen your unusual brutality in my own country where Arabs refuse to be neighborly. Apparently you even do it to your fellow Arabs - remember Saddam in the 80's ? That said I think some of you are decent people. Beautiful music too

[faroutdudes5]

@tyty1794 This was said quite some time ago. I will not let you slander me. I do not hate you or your countries. You, actually, are being quite defensive. My "People" as you call it, are indeed despicable, but I am not one of them. I do not show hate for anything or anyone. If you are referring to me being American.

If you are referring me to Arab, I am not, however my ancestry does have Turkish in it :)

[xMortax]

Love the track, thanks for the link! :)

[njamcojka65]

Many aspects of Libyan culture are unknown in Europe. Great music, beautiful pictures!

[sihaanm]

@dooli1981

Thanks... i will see... it would be so nice to know the meaning..though my soul already knows it.... God bless!

[rialina1560]

[xomfgxitsxaquax]

this relaxes me... such beautiful middle eastern music. (sorry if that description is incorrect)

[dooli1981]

Your description is spot on! :-)

[kik820]

@dooli1981 great music ,I love music from libyan ,

[BerbashA]

@xomfgxitsxaquax To be more accurate it is a Traditional Libyan Music, and not simillar to other middle eastren music. Since this kind of music has Andalucian origins, it exists only in the north african countries. u can find a similar tones in Morroco with slight differences.

I am glad that u like our music :)

Enjoyyyy

[CoolGirl508]

what a beautiful language.

[dooli1981]

@CoolGirl508 Yes I agree, a most beautiful language.

[libya22008]

@CoolGirl508 thank you!!

[kik820]

@CoolGirl508 hi this music is beatifull I like this songs.thanks

[Petsy2006]

[Tawaqu]

De que trata el canto? se que es tradicional, pero que dice?.

Muy bonitas imagenes, me recuerda a mi desierto, pero aca el mar y el desierto se funden.

[sihaanm]

This is soooo lovely.... it touches the essence of life.. in me. Greetings to all with much love!

[murf69]

Legendary, cheers dude.

[scupecenter]

تسمى الموشحات أو المالوف وهي امتداد للموشحات الأندلسية حيث لم يبقى منها الا القليل في ليبيا والمغرب على ما اعتقد... وهي تعنى بتمجيد الله سبحانه وتعالى ومدح حبيبنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. دمتم...

[claudiolittle]

Arab music is a bless for de soul, tank you, Alahukbar

[dooli1981]

Ameen

[ccrich100]

what does "Ameen" means, please?

[dooli1981]

Ameen is the Arabic equivalent of the English Amen said after a prayer or supplication.

[ccrich100]

Hey - thanks for the explanation. Sounds like Ameen and Amen is somewhat similiar to the Om of the Hindus.

[AlienZygote010]

shalom/salaam would be a closer comparison

[TheBluePlanet42]

The word "Amen", used in all 3 major monotheistic faiths, is an appealation to the Egyptian god Amen.

[dooli1981]

@TheBluePlanet42: I disagree.

'Popular among some theosophists, proponents of Afrocentric theories of history, and adherents of esoteric Christianity is the conjecture that amen is a derivative of the name of the Egyptian god Amun (which is sometimes also spelled Amen). Some adherents of Eastern religions believe that amen shares roots with the Sanskrit word, aum. There is no academic support for either of these views.' Source Wikipedia

[nguyd462]

@TheBluePlanet42

The word amen can also be traced to a hebrew word meaning truly, loyalty or placing faith within. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism all follow the god of Abraham and it makes sense there would be similarities.

[savvasithaka]

what exact recording/ song is this? is there a link outside of youtube for it?

[CameronElektra]

Greetings from an Australian teenager! I love Traditional "Eastern" Music, whether it be from Africa all the way to India. Its got such a great flavour

venezuela

[megatron0357]

is this a particular style of music? if so can you please tell me what it is. i like the slow rhythimic beat...reeal smooth...i love it!

[dooli1981]

This type of music is known as Maluf. It originated in Andalusia Spain when the Muslims ruled most of Spain. When the Muslims were expelled some of them went to N.Africa and took this music with them. Morocco, Tunisia & Algeria also have similar style of Maluf music although known by different names in those countries.

The artist that sung the song in my video is called Hassan Arabi. There r many groups in Libya who sing Maluf, but Hassan Arabi and his group are one of the most well known.

[megatron0357]

wow...what a marvelous song!!! awesome! make me want to take a trip to libya!!

[getriht]

OMG what a GREAT SONG !!!

[fattoon1]

i'm a big fan of maloof, i'm from bab libharr 6rablis. we love this music. plus Hassa Arebi rahmat Allah 3leeh was my father's friend

[Ammanah121]

Malouf is a sung poem in the style of Arab Andalusia. May also be called a nuba or Muwwashah (plural Muwashahat)

[dooli1981]

Are you a fan of Malouf, and if so is there a particular country's style you like best?

[cleveland181]

thniks :) nice

[AdamTheLion]

i cannot find Hassan Arabi's music to buy or download anywhere, can anyone help or point me in the right direction?

[torwaron]

[sarahicelands]

the music is amaizingly beautiful, really. So deep and sophisticated. I love the views too. Really wonderful video.

[dooli1981]

Thanks for the wonderful comment, and glad you enjoyed the music and video!

[myse1f]

one more thing, I thought that traditional arab music lacks any 'symphonic' compositions. Correct me if I'm wron.. and if so, could you provide me some artists names? :) Many, many thanks in advance.

[dooli1981]

Sorry I am not a musician, so have no idea what you just asked! Maybe someone else here can help? Anyone?

[carlosmangela]

do they play the Rabab fiddle in Libya too? Beautiful music! shukran jazeelan!

[myse1f]

"This song is called "Ya Gazalan" by Hassan Arabi. "

What does Ya Gazalan means? Any idea when it was written? And what it is about?

[dooli1981]

Ya Gazalan means "Oh Gazelle", and it compares a woman to the Gazelle, which is a small swift graceful antelope of Africa and Asia having lustrous eyes and a slender frame.

This poem is very old and has roots in Andalusia, Spain when the Arabs ruled.

Hope that helps!

[abdo76353]

thank you for this maloof.keep the good work

[SipahiWarrior]

Nice. I like it. ^_^

[LazoThaMaster]

what is the name of this song?

[dooli1981]

This song is called "Ya Gazalan" by Hassan Arabi.

[LibyanLion2009]

well done

[ballogni]

yakuza26. this kind of music is called Maloof. it is originally came from Muslims in Spain(Andalus)

it is prevalent in all arab countries but in each region it has developed and was affected by local culture. The Singer's name is Hasan Erabi

[yakuza26]

I really like this music. Is there a place where I can get this song (cd or online)? Also, what is the name of the song and performer? I have seen many people ask this but never a clear response in English. Thanks and I appreciate you posting.

[bardiott]

The best music!!!!

[Bettlach2000]

انت العليم الهى و القضاء قدري فامنن و بارك و تب انى لذو عشم

ثم الصلاة على المختار سيدنا محمد خير خلق الله كلهم

و الال و الصحب ما غنت مطوقة او ما حدا سائق الركبان بالنغم

[Bettlach2000]

انت العليم الهى و القضاء قدري

فامنن و بارك وتب اني لذو عشم

ادعوك بالذات و الاسماء اجمعها

كذا الصفات و ما فى اللوح و القلم

ان تستر الحال منى دائما ابدا و فى الاقامة و الترحال للحرم

[Bettlach2000]

يا سامعا لدعاء المضطر يا املي

يا واحد احد يا واهب النعم

انت العليم الهى و القضاء قدري فامنن و بارك و تب انى لذو عشم

فقد امرت بان ندعوك يا سندى و قد وعدت اجبنا ذا العطا العمم

يسر لسيري ايا مولاى مكرمة و العفو فى الدين و الغفران للمم

[Bettlach2000]

يا من خلقت الورى من ظلمة العدم

يا ذا البقاء و الغناء و الجود و الكرم

يا عالم الغيب يا من لا شريك له

ياذا العطاء و الندى يا بارئ النسم
