صُوصًا

Prompt

ARABIC VOCAL-ONLY NASHEED — SOLO MALE HUMAN VOICE ONLY. ABSOLUTELY NO MUSIC. NO MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS. NO DRUMS. NO PERCUSSION. NO BEAT. NO BACKGROUND MUSIC. NO SOUND EFFECTS. NO INSTRUMENTAL INTRO OR OUTRO. PURE HUMAN MALE VOICE ONLY. Perform this as a traditional Classical Arabic a cappella nasheed. Use a deep, warm, powerful and expressive male Arabic voice. Pronunciation must be very clear Classical Arabic (Fusha). FOLLOW THE ARABIC DIACRITICS EXACTLY. Do not change, omit, or add words. The melodic vocal style should be solemn, emotional and traditional. The first two lines must sound deeply serious, humble and emotional. After that, gradually transform the vocal melody into a majestic, heroic and proud style as the character boasts that he is a free falcon whom nobody can stop. The pride should gradually become exaggerated. When his friends challenge him to actually leave the house, keep the same melodic nasheed style but introduce hesitation and subtle comedy. At: "وَلَكِنْ... لَيْسَ مَسْمُوحًا ذَهَابِي!" the heroic confidence should suddenly collapse. Sing it hesitantly and with embarrassment. After that, maintain a serious nasheed melody while the words become increasingly funny. The contrast between the serious vocal performance and the ridiculous situation is essential to the comedy. The final four lines must become slower and more dramatic. Pronunciation instructions: كَلَّا = KAL-LAA, with a clear fatḥa on كَ and stressed لَّ. رُوَيْدًا = RU-WAY-DAN, clearly separated as رُ - وَيْ - دًا. عُقَابًا = ‘U-QAA-BAN, beginning with عُ, meaning the great bird of prey. صُوصًا = SOO-SAN, beginning with صُ. Before the final word "صُوصًا", make a VERY LONG dramatic vocal pause. Then sing "صُوصًا" alone, slowly, clearly and humorously as the final punchline. Do NOT sing anything written inside square brackets. Square brackets are performance instructions only. ==================== LYRICS ==================== [بِبُطْءٍ شَدِيد — خُشُوعٌ وَحُزْن — صَوْتٌ عَمِيقٌ وَجَادّ] أَنَا العَبْدُ الَّذِي كَسَبَ الذُّنُوبَا وَصَدَّتْهُ الأَمَانِي أَنْ يَتُوبَا [وَقْفَةٌ قَصِيرَة] [يَبْدَأُ الصَّوْتُ بِالارْتِفَاع — تَتَحَوَّلُ النَّبْرَةُ مِنَ الخُشُوعِ إِلَى الفَخْر] أَنَا الصَّقْرُ الَّذِي قَدْ عَاشَ حُرًّا وَمَا خَفَضَ الجَنَاحَ وَلَا اسْتَكَانَا [لَحْنٌ صَوْتِيٌّ أَقْوَى — فَخْرٌ وَثِقَة] أَطُوفُ الأَرْضَ لَا أَخْشَى قُيُودًا وَأَجْعَلُ مِنْ صِعَابِ الدَّهْرِ هَوْنًا [تَصَاعُدٌ فِي الصَّوْت — بَطُولَةٌ وَتَبَاهٍ] إِذَا قَالُوا: تَوَقَّفْ! قُلْتُ: كَلَّا! وَهَلْ صَقْرٌ يَهَابُ لَهُمْ وَعِيدَا؟ [بِقُوَّةٍ وَاعْتِزَاز — تَأْكِيدٌ عَلَى كَلِمَةِ الحُرّ] أَنَا الحُرُّ الَّذِي لَا قَيْدَ يُدْنِيهِ وَلَا بَابٌ يَصُدُّ لَهُ طَرِيقَا [يَرْتَفِعُ اللَّحْنُ الصَّوْتِي — ثِقَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ وَتَبَاهٍ مُبَالَغٌ فِيه] أُحَلِّقُ حَيْثُ أَشَاءُ وَلَا أُبَالِي وَأَمْضِي فِي الحَيَاةِ وَلَا أُحَابِي [وَقْفَةٌ قَصِيرَة] [تَتَغَيَّرُ النَّبْرَة — صَوْتُ الصَّحْبِ فِيهِ تَحَدٍّ] فَقَالَ الصَّحْبُ: يَا صَقْرُ انْطَلِقْ إِذًا! تَعَالَ اليَوْمَ، لَا تَبْقَ
