In this post, I\u2019m going to share with you a funny and beautiful theme song about plants \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0628\u0627\u062a\u0627\u062a<\/strong> and home agriculture \u0627\u0644\u0632\u0631\u0627\u0639\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0646\u0632\u0644\u064a\u0629<\/strong>. The song is an advert for a campaign<\/strong> \u062d\u0645\u0644\u0629 that was launched<\/strong> \u0623\u064f\u0637\u0644\u0650\u0642\u062a<\/strong> about two weeks ago, by the Lebanese actress and director Nadine Labaki \u0646\u0627\u062f\u064a\u0646 \u0644\u0628\u0643\u064a @NadineLabaki. The lyrics are in Lebanese Arabic<\/u> and the translation is provided to convey the intended meaning<\/em> only<\/em>, not the literal<\/em>. Enjoy! The post is in two parts due to the length of the song.<\/p>\n

Since the title is in Lebanese dialect, the Qaf<\/strong> \u0642\u0640 <\/strong>\u00a0in \u0642\u0644\u0628\u064a<\/strong> \u00a0is pronounced as consonant \u201ca\u201d> alb-i.<\/p>\n
