    Farid Atrash was a Syrian singer and oud player, born in the 10s and died in the 70s. He is one of the most famous and respected (and groundbreaking) Arab artists of all time, and this is a particularly lovely tune of his. The title translates to "Oh beautiful, oh beautiful", and the lyrics are very cutesy. Here's a translation by Reddit user /u/dodli.. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1u0AF4mcD6P2dEYHHpri__EtUemLU7Uf_2YsszgSORas/pub

    Came on the radio couple days ago, and I was reminded of how endearing this song is. Hope both Arab and non-Arab users here enjoy this!
