I would gladly ransom my soul
To safeguard this singer with the lovely voice,
Whose beauty is so breathtaking
And who sings so melodiously. [TR]

This excerpt comes from the repertoire of Eastern classical Arab music. This music is played in Eastern Arab countries as well as in the Maghreb, especially in Tunisia where it is held in the same esteem as Andalusian music.
