Marwan Halabi - Me & You | مروان حلبي - أنا وأنت
In this song “Me & You”, Marwan reconnects with his Self through a dialogue with two versions of himself in a moment of despair. He speaks of the chaos of existence and crisis of confusion in what unfolds as a dialogue between a person who finds himself at a loss and another who pulls towards hope. In the midst of his inner darkness, he struggles to restore the hope lost, with the realization that hope is but a small spark that needs to be fed and reignited into life.

Lyrics:
انا وانت
انت وانا
في ليلك عتمة حيرة ودوار
صدى اصوات وفوضى اقدار
في اعماقك نورٌ ونار
احضن غضبك حزنك حبك وجعك
وتعال
لنعيدَ الأملَ المفقود
انا وانت
انت وانا
وكأنَكَ نَجمٌ مِن الآف السِنين مَوجودٌ قبل الوجود ابدي ازلي ابدي ازلي بلا حدود
ونعيدُ الاملَ المفقود
لينير كل رقصةٍ، كل نغمةٍ، أنا وأنت، همسة، ضحكةٍ، كُلَ دَمعةٍ
ينير كل رقصةٍ كل نغمةٍ انا وانت همسة ضحكة كل دمعة
تعال
لنعيدَ الأملَ المفقود
انا وانت
انت وانا
You and I
You and me
Confusion and dizziness in your night
echoes of voices and chaos of fates
light and fire in your depth
hold your anger, your sadness, your love, your pain….
Come and let's return our lost hope
You and I
you and me
You exist before existence like a star that's from thousands of years with no limits
endless forever forever endless
we return the hope we lost
So may every dance, every melody, light you and me up with a whisper, a laugh and every tear
Lights up every dance , every melody you and I whisper laugh every tear
Come and let's return our lost hope
You and I …
you and me ..
About Marwan
Marwan Halabi’s quest for his own artistic space led him through various experiences. Influenced by his immediate environment, he started out by singing Arabic songs. He then taught himself to play the guitar and traveled to learn about spiritual forms of music. Marwan’s music can now be described as composite, imbued with diverse identities and musical forms.
Marwan has taught music for children and he went on to learn several disciplines which he did not see through, realizing that his true desire was to make music. He learned to sing and play at an early age at home, where being offkey was strictly forbidden. The fundamental influence on his art came from learning about spiritual music during his extensive travel in India, leading him to blend Middle Eastern maqams, Indian ragas, and the blues.
Marwan produced seven songs, through which he sought to address the complexities of present realities and the limitations on identity under occupation in his hometown of Daliat al-Karmel in northern Palestine. In “Nafham Ala Baad” (We Understand Each Other) and “Liqaa al-Malaeka” (Angels’ Encounter), he merges a spiritual musicality with his anger towards his reality, in a representation of inner light and darkness.
Marwan’s music can be said to range between rock, soft rock, and alternative Arabic music, but his work is broadly distinguished by the variety it contains and the uniqueness of its sound, transcending any dominant trends.
