In a <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/arabic\/meet-majida-el-roumi\/\">previous post<\/a> I introduced you all to the Lebanese diva Majida el Roumi. Today, I am sharing another musical masterpiece by Majida called \u2018Habibi\u2019 (<b>\u062d\u0628\u064a\u0628\u064a<\/b>) which literally means My Love. The song is based on a classical piece called Adagio in G Minor by the famous 18<sup>th<\/sup> century Venetian master Tomaso Albinoni. This classical piece might be familiar to many of you. I personally think that Majida and her band have done a wonderful rendition of this piece by adding beautiful lyrics in Arabic as well as several Arabic instruments in the new musical arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have added a live performance of this beautiful song by Majida in form of a YouTube video. I have also added the lyrics in Arabic and translated them into English for you to follow with the song and understand the meaning behind these profound and beautiful lyrics. This is a beautiful love ballad and I am confident many of you here will certainly enjoy it. As you remember in <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/arabic\/3-smart-tips-to-pick-up-arabic-quickly\/\">an earlier post<\/a>, I mentioned that listening to Arabic music and understanding the lyrics can tremendously help you to learn and improve you Arabic language skills!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"majida habibi amore\" width=\"500\"
