أبي يرحى

Style: STYLE & PERFORMANCE INSTRUCTIONS Create a deeply moving Arabic vocal elegy titled "يا أول الأمان", performed as an authentic, sorrowful Arabic free-form MAWWAL (موال), with a traditional oriental melodic character. VOCALS ONLY — ABSOLUTELY NO INSTRUMENTS. One solo mature male voice throughout the entire performance. No oud, no piano, no strings, no percussion, no drums, no clapping, no synthesizers, no background music, no backing vocals, no choir, no harmonies, no sound effects, and no instrumental introduction or outro. The recording must contain the human voice alone, with natural silence between phrases. MAQAM: Bayati as the primary Arabic maqam, with subtle, authentic oriental melodic inflections appropriate to a mournful Arabic mawwal. Prioritize emotional authenticity and melodic coherence over technical vocal display. TEMPO & MELODY: Free rhythm, without a fixed beat or metronomic pulse. Slow, spacious, expressive phrasing. Use authentic Arabic melisma, delicate vocal ornaments, sustained notes, descending melodic phrases, and natural pauses. The melody must be genuinely sung, not spoken poetry or rhythmic recitation. EMOTIONAL JOURNEY: Begin with an intimate, low, fragile voice, as though a son is alone in an empty house, calling for his deceased father. Gradually deepen the sorrow as the poem unfolds. Build the first emotional peak at "أين كتف أبي؟" and a second, more profound emotional peak at "ودخلت إليك". Then let the voice slowly collapse into tenderness and vulnerability. The recurring phrase "أبي... أين كتف أبي؟" must have a memorable, emotionally powerful Arabic melodic motif. Each recurrence should retain its melodic identity while carrying greater emotional weight. Use restrained, authentic oriental vocal ornamentation. Allow subtle natural cracks in the voice, but avoid theatrical sobbing, screaming, excessive melisma, or exaggerated vibrato. The singer should sound like a grown man whose inner child is still searching for his father. ENDING: The final section must become increasingly intimate and fragile. Sing the final "أبي..." alone, with a short, descending, deeply sorrowful mawwal phrase. End with complete silence. No music, no instrumental note, no added words, and no prolonged vocal improvisation after the final word. STRICT LYRICS RULES: Sing the complete Arabic poem below exactly as written and in the exact order provided. Preserve every word, every stanza, and every written repetition. Do not omit, rewrite, rearrange, or add any lyrics. Do not add an opening vocalization, improvised "آه" or "يا ليل", extra choruses, or repeated lines. Respect the line breaks, ellipses, and stanza transitions as phrasing guidance. Do not sing the asterisks separating stanzas. The poetry must remain the center of the performance. The result should feel like an intimate, traditional Arabic mourning mawwal: raw, warm, haunting, deeply human, and emotionally devastating. LYRICS — SING EXACTLY AS WRITTEN: يَا أَوَّلَ الْأَمَانْ... مُنْذُ رَحِيلِكَ... وَالْبَيْتُ يَمْشِي بِلَا جُدْرَانْ... وَالْبَابُ يَفْتَحُهُ النِّسْيَانْ، وَلَا يَأْتِي أَحَدْ... أُنَادِيكَ... فَيَخْرُجُ صَوْتِي حَافِيًا، وَيَعُودُ يَحْمِلُ جَنَازَةَ الصَّدَى... أَبِي... أَيْنَ كَتِفُ أَبِي؟ كَبِرْتُ... وَمَا زِلْتُ طِفْلًا، كُلَّمَا أَوْجَعَنِي الْعَالَمُ، نَادَيْتُكَ... فَيَرْجِعُ صَوْتِي وَحِيدًا، وَيَبْقَى الْمَكَانْ... مَنْ أَجْلَسَ الْغِيَابَ مَكَانَكَ، يَا أَبِي؟ مَنْ عَلَّقَ مِعْطَفَكَ عَلَى الْهَوَاءِ؟ مَنْ أَوْرَثَ الْمِرْآةَ مَلَامِحَكَ، وَتَرَكَ عَيْنَيَّ يَتِيمَتَيْنِ؟ مُنْذُ رَحِيلِكَ... وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ تُرْبِكُهُ طُفُولَتُهُ... أَضُمُّ أَحِبَّتِي... فَتَبْكِي عِظَامِي: أَيْنَ كَتِفُ أَبِي؟ أَبِي... أَيْنَ كَتِفُ أَبِي؟ كَبِرْتُ... وَمَا زِلْتُ طِفْلًا، كُلَّمَا أَوْجَعَنِي الْعَالَمُ، نَادَيْتُكَ... فَيَرْجِعُ صَوْتِي وَحِيدًا، وَيَبْقَى الْمَكَانْ... وَأَقُولُ: أَبِي... فَتَنْطَفِئُ نَجْمَةٌ فِي فَمِي، وَيَجْثُو اللَّيْلُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيَّ... يَا أَبِي... لَوْ كَانَ لِلشَّوْقِ بَابٌ، لَطَرَقْتُ قَلْبِي، وَدَخَلْتُ إِلَيْكَ... لَكِنَّ قَلْبِي... كُلَّمَا كَبُرَ، عَادَ طِفْلًا... يَبْحَثُ عَنْ يَدِكَ... فَيُمْسِكُ بِيَدِهِ... وَيَبْكِي... أَبِي...
