You must’ve noticed. The white flower shedding petals all over her flamenco dress, while the stubborn birthmark above her lip remains in place. Or the rhythmic clapping from the onlookers failing to choreograph their rogue, oversized earrings. Surely, you’ve observed their bare necks welcoming the late afternoon Seville sun, while pure Spanish dew slowly forms on their skin. Well, that’s only part of it. You really had to be there.

This is one of the classic Spanish raptures! Once the music and the clapping of the hands start and you see the majestic move of the hands, you are in for a glorious journey of emotions.

Lamento
Qinah al-Sefarad! Marthiyya al-Andalus!
Centuries ago we stared for the far shore and cried and died
without seeing you again.
Ya shely! Mi prexiosa!
Ah, Habiba! Mi amada!
Centuries you have returned us in your eyes, in your skin in your laugh!

I knew when they danced….… The music ran through my veins. Then, I understood the rhythm that I was born with. I finally found my roots!
