    Spoken introduction This playlist is partly a record of my journey around the world. I first heard this song in a small café in Madaba, Jordan, played by a lute player. Amr Diab’s song is known as “Nour El Ain”, the glow of my eyes, or by its recurring word “habibi” — darling. His full name is Amr Abdel Basset Abdel Aziz Diab — probably not what his mother calls him every day.
