El Sett, (The Lady), Oum Kalthoum with "Al Atlal (The Ruins)"
Nobody does mournful or dramatic better than Oum Kalthoum, and the lyrics were truly beautiful- the opening:
"O my heart do not ask where is love,
It was a fort of my imagination- and it fell.
Let's drink together over the ruins
Let's drink and let my tears slake my thirst"
