about

“شوفوا كيف المي” tells the story of everything that goes well when it lets itself go, then goes better as it surrenders further to the flow... From the water that runs to the clouds in the sky and Love when it is almighty and true. شوفوا كيف المي is the song of a path less taken for all the wrong reasons: the path of least resistance.

This is the ballad of the EP, where the warmth of the piano (Scarlett Saad) and the aliveness of the qanun (Ramy Akiel) come, meet and dance in what ends up being, perhaps, also the most oriental sounding song on the EP.

lyrics

شوفو كيف المي
هي و نازلة بهالسواقي
كيفا رايحة
و مش عمبتسأل حالها ليه
عمبتروي هل حَي

شوفو كيف الفَي
لما يعطينا خيالو
منو عارف ولا ببالو
يوصل لمحل

شوفو كيف الغيم
سهيان، بحالو
ماشي و مش دريان
وَلا ليش، ولا لَوين
متل ما بدو النسيم
و نحن شو بعدنا ناطرين
كلو ماشي ع كَيفو
كلو بوقتو عظيم

شوفوا كيف الكون
مهيّنها ع حالو
مسلّم امرو للي الهيأة اكبر منو
مين ما كان يكون

شوفو كيف الحب
ما بضيع الّا بحالو
منو طالب شي، و الّي في مكفّي
و نحن متلو بالظبت
متلو خلقنا من الحلى
و متلو فهمنا بالوما
انو كلو ماشي ع كَيفو
و كلو بوقتو عظيم
