Fantasia for solo violin on an Arabic tune of Sayed Darwish.

Text / translation

 امل ادبىنثتي
يدعو و اييتريح
ام يل ميحريتوكش
بحلاب نميتعول
ىمؤا ظحلبانرسٔا
نصغ ابسامنيح

 

Translation

When he began to walk coquettishly
My promised one, my puzzle
Who can answer my complaint
and suffering but the beautiful one?
When he once nodded his head,
I was captive.
