Composed by: Jame3 Taksir

The evil poem
Rain..Rain..
Her girlfriend with her, and October’s lamentation
And the door’s joints moaning
And in it the key has gone wild
There’s something between the two of them
Only me and the lamp know about
It’s a love story
That shouldn’t be told
In love
Clarification dies

The room is a mess
Jewels are thrown
And silky clothes
Are removed 
And a button is unfastened calmly
Because the night
Has turned into morning
The female wolf
Is feeding her companion
And a hand that keeps invading and invading
And clothes that ran away
One of them is unzipping it/ is getting close to it
And the other is resting peacefully
Rain..Rain..
Her girlfriend with her, and a lamentation for October
And the door’s joints are moaning
And in it the key has gone wild
There’s something between the two of them
Only me and the lamp know about
It’s a love story
That shouldn’t be told
In love
Clarification dies

And the conversation of four bosoms
They are whispering
Whispers are allowed
Like tamed white birds
Quarrelling and the feathers are weapons
The beads of the two necklaces
Are lost in joy and pleasure
A bosom got rid of its scarf
And a bosom rebels and revolts
Behind the scar are many scars
Rain..Rain..
Her girlfriend with her, and a lamentation for October
And the door’s joints are moaning
And in it the key has gone wild
There’s something between the two of them
Only me and the lamp know about
It’s a love story
That shouldn’t be told
In love
Clarification dies

“Ghanni A`an Taa`rif” (Singing Sexuality) is a Palestinian youth music project, and an initiative of alQaws for Sexual and Gender Diversity in Palestinian Society.  The project emerged from the desire of alQaws activists to reach out to Palestinian youth. alQaws aspired to open new discussions about sexuality and gender diversity in Palestinian society through music. Music is an expressive art form that has the potential to make us think and feel; it is a driver and catalog of revolutionary social movements, this one no exception.

The media campaign for the project was launched on the first of May 2013, primarily through Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and email. The Facebook page holds all relevant information about "Ghanni A`an Taa`rif", as well as all written and visual materials that were and will be produced. These include three promotional teaser videos directed by Eli Reziq and Shahd Issawi. The campaign also included graffiti painted on the walls of Jaffa, Haifa and other cities.
