About the song

الأغنية من مسرحية «المحطة»، التي عُرضت أول مرة على مسرح البيكاديللي عام 1973 بإخراج برج فازليان. وحضر عاصي الرحباني العرض الأول بعد ثلاثة أشهر من إصابته بنزيف في الدماغ، وتولّى إلياس الرحباني التوزيع الأوركسترالي.

The song comes from the play «al-Maḥaṭṭah», first shown at the Piccadilly in 1973 and directed by Berge Fazlian. ʻĀṣī al-Raḥbānī attended the premiere three months after his brain haemorrhage, and Ilyās al-Raḥbānī took over the orchestration.

أُعيد بناء العنوان العربي من كتابته بالحروف اللاتينية في القائمة.The Arabic title was reconstructed from the Latin transliteration in the list.
