Baddi Ghanni Lannas
Ahmad Kaabour Lyrics

Ahmad Kaabour's song Baddi Ghanni Lannas is a powerful social commentary that explores the struggles and injustices faced by marginalized communities. The opening line, "The one drowning in his night, wandering among the stars, contemplating who's thinking of him," sets the tone for the rest of the song. It expresses the longing for connection and the feeling of isolation that people experience when they are forgotten or neglected by society.

The next lines talk about the refugees who flee from war and violence, only to face a new kind of exile as they struggle to fit in and make a new home. When asked about what happened, they answer "nothing," because they feel that their stories are too painful to tell. The chorus, "In death, I scream, but no sound comes out, in death, how can I sing when I have no voice?" underscores the sense of powerlessness and despair that these people feel.

The song then turns to a more political tone, criticizing those who wage war in the name of human rights, only to betray those same rights by perpetuating violence and injustice. The verse "Who declared war in the name of human rights, and who sold God a long time ago?" highlights the hypocrisy and cynicism of those who benefit from conflict and oppression.

The final verse expresses the hope that music can be a source of healing and unity for those who have been marginalized or forgotten. The lines "I want to sing for the people who have no one, who were the foundation but forgotten. But how can I sing? How can I sing for the people who never experienced childhood?" underscore the importance of honoring the stories and struggles of those who have been left behind by society.
