Sowar
๐ถ๐ธ๐ผ๏ธ๐ย “Sowar” means “pictures” in English. A beautiful song about all the memories a person sees in the still pictures hung on the walls and all around us in our archives and on our desks. It speaks about all the nice memories most Egyptians experience throughout their lives, all the pictures of the people we love, and the pictures of the moments we cherish which makes it a very touching song. Thank you Hamaki and all the crew for this nice nostalgic song! ๐ย ๐ ๐
