Naïka - Before He Falls (Live at Berklee)

[@AliyaCyconMusic]

Such an honor to play 'oud on this and to have arranged it! Thanks Naika, Sharifa and Berklee

[@mariodario9033]

AliyaCyconMusic Fantastic job, your play takes this song to another dimension. All best !

[@SaraMohamed-em5gb]

I used to listen to this song many years ago and then I forgot about it. Now with everything that has been going on in Gaza for more than a year, I am listening to it again and I can’t stop crying, this song has a completely different meaning for me now. What a cruel world we live in 😢🇵🇸

[@WalaaWaheed]

Stop the war He is pure He doesn't know what you are fighting for Stop the war before he falls 😢😢😢😢❤

[@SOUF1298]

There’s a little boy, in a little house He loves attention And in his loving home when the lights go out He wants to play He says: “Look at me mommy, look at me! I am flying can you see?” But the little boy hears his mother cry It’s all familiar And with this noise outside he knows where to hide And holds her close She says “look at me baby, look at me In your heart I’ll always be” Stop the war Stop the war before he falls Stop the war He’s a dreamer He is pure When the darkness clears His home disappears The world is turning And through the cloudy sky a man opens his eyes And yells, and prays He screams “look at me boy look at me Can you hear me can you breathe?” But paralyzed from the scene Not one tear falls on his cheek Stop the war Stop the war before he falls Stop the war He’s a dreamer He is pure Another little girl in another house She loves affection And in her loving home when the lights go out She wants to play She wants to play

[@puresereneaesthetic]

This music deserves the Oscar!

[@ranafayiz4596]

he's a dreamer he'se pure he doesn't know what your're fighting for 😢

[@ammarrizki6145]

I love how they make music with western and eastern instruments without making each other "the other".

[@deviousdevil5556]

Honestly! This is what I call real music. Literally I'm crying. Love n respect from India 🇮🇳

[@jayvenson6166]

She is haitian, haiti is so proud of Naïka 🇭🇹 🇭🇹 🇭🇹

[@bersa2008]

I heard this song many years ago and then forgot about it. Now with everything that is happening in Israel a year ago on 7/010/2024 I am listening to it again and I can't stop crying, this song has a completely different meaning for me now. What a cruel world we live in 🇵🇸

[@athena8030]

Stop the war, children don't know what are you fighting for.. They are pure, let them living their innocence 🕯️

[@dr.irfananwararnab1925]

💔💔💔 Art at it’s purest; it’s heartbreaking yet so beautiful ; it’s so tender yet resilient.

[@paladin4poets851]

One of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a very long time ...

[@mohamedamergharbi3432]

Just discovered what real art is Precious wow .... 👏❤

[@Maiasatara]

Please don’t ever take this down. I keep coming back to it again and again. The arrangement is so gorgeous. Makes me want to write a short film built around it just so I can use this. Any time I play it it’s in my head for the rest of the day.

[@EsmailBahous]

*Lyrics* There’s a little boy, in a little house He loves attention And in his loving home when the lights go out He wants to play He says: “Look at me mommy, look at me!

[@salm.6776]

I listen to it over and and over. And I cry....

[@amralaa5550]

Every time tears go down

[@Stalbans1953]

A stunningly moving and beautifully performed piece - many congratulations to all involved. The whole performance provokes tears & cuts through to the heart. I was especially struck by Naika's voice (& composition) and Aliya's Oud - but it's a little invidious to single individuals out. A profound & (regrettably) timeless Truth. Thank you so much.

[@anassalhi8191]

If this song isn’t stopping the war, trust me, nothing will.

[@chaneldorelus4925]

This is just pure music with an angelic voice. I can't help myself but cry every time listen to this piece of art,pure ART.
