I was supposed to release this in September, woops! If you follow me on TikTok, you will know this has been in the works for a long time! But finally. I have Miku singing in my native tongue about my struggles; the struggles of being forced to flee your home due to war and feeling unwelcome no matter where you go. Something I am familiar with and a lot of people can relate to. That being said, this is my most vulnerable song to date. I had doubts a few days before release. However, not only am I proud of the video, but of my musical choices as well. I attempted to merge both traditional Arabic elements with Metal. Moreover, making Miku sing in Arabic becomes easier with time, I think I might do another song in Arabic in the future. Please let me know what you think :)!

Lyrics:
انا في حقل خالي اتأمل زهرة بيضاء
حقل اكلته النيران اتأمل زهرة بيضاء
هل يوجد لى مكان في هذه الأرض؟
انا غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
انا غريب. غريب.
اين وطني يا ترا؟ ما هذا الأحساس العجيب؟
غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
هل الزهرة صامده؟ او ربماباقي النبات كان ضعيف في وجه النيران؟
انا غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
الزهرة ذبلت. الزهرة ماتت
ليس من نار, بل من وحدتها
الزهرة قاومت. الزهرة عاشت.
الزهرة. ما زالت هنا
الزهرة ذبلت. الزهرة ماتت
مش من نار, بل من وحدتها
الزهرة قاومت. الزهرة عاشت.
الزهرة. في قلوبنا
مهما حصل, يجب ان تواجه الواقع الأليم
ليس هناك مكان تنتمي اليه
أنت روح ضائعة بلا وطن او أمل
مهما حصل, يجب ان تواجه الواقع الأليم
لن يتقبلك احد لا احد
انت مختلف عن الجميع
هل هناك سبب للأستمرار؟
اخبريني يا زهرة, هل الحياة جديرة بالاهتمام، حتى لو كنت وحيداً لا ابتسم؟
أخبريني يا زهرة , هل الحب مجرد إلهاء عن الحقيقة القاسية؟
يا زهرة، إذا الحب بدايته سطحية فكيف سينتهي برأيك؟
هل يمكن ان ينموا الى شيء جميل؟
ام ان النهاية السيئة لا يمكن تجنبها؟
هل مصيري محتوم؟
غريب. غريب.
غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
انا غريب. غريب.
اين وطني يا ترا؟ ما هذا الأحساس العجيب؟
غريب. غريب.
بين وطني و المكان البعيد
الناس الذين جعلوا حياتك صعبة ، لن يتقبلوك مهما فعلت
فلماذا تحاول؟
انت غريب غريب.
غريب غريب
هل ستتمشاي مع بشر خذلونا؟
مهما حصل, يجب ان تواجه الواقع الأليم
اسوء ايامك تلخص في مقال على ويكيبيديا
أنت روح ضائعة بلا وطن او أمل
مهما حصل, يجب ان تواجه الواقع الأليم
إذا لم تكن فخوراً بنفسك، فلن يفتخر بك
أحد لا أحد
لماذا تصر على رضا من يجعلك تعيسًا؟
Sightly Different Translation:
I am in an empty field, contemplating a white flower
A field consumed by flames, I contemplate a white flower
Is there a place for me on this earth?
I am a stranger. A stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
I am a stranger. A stranger.
Where is my homeland, I wonder? What is this strange feeling?
Stranger. Stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
Is the flower holding on? Or maybe the rest of the plants were too weak to face the flames?
I am a stranger. A stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
Stranger. Stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
The flower withered. The flower died
Not from fire, but from loneliness
The flower resisted. The flower lived.
The flower is still here
The flower withered. The flower died
Not from fire, but from loneliness
The flower resisted. The flower lived.
The flower, in our hearts
No matter what happens, you must face the painful reality
There is no place you belong
You are a lost soul without a homeland or hope
No matter what happens, you must face the painful reality
No one will accept you, no one
You are different from everyone
Is there a reason to continue?
Tell me, flower, is life worth it, even if you are alone and don't smile?
Tell me, flower, is love just a distraction from the harsh truth?
Oh flower, if love begins on the surface, how do you think it will end?
Can it grow into something beautiful?
Or is a bad ending inevitable?
Is my fate sealed?
Stranger. Stranger.
Stranger. Stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
I am a stranger. A stranger.
Where is my homeland, I wonder? What is this strange feeling?
Stranger. Stranger.
Between my homeland and a distant place
The people who made your life hard will never accept you no matter what you do
So why do you try?
You are a stranger, stranger.
Stranger, stranger
Will you walk with people who betrayed us?
No matter what happens, you must face the painful reality
Your worst days are summed up in a Wikipedia article
You are a lost soul without a homeland or hope
No matter what happens, you must face the painful reality
If you are not proud of yourself, no one will be proud of you
No one, no one
Why do you insist on pleasing those who make you miserable?
