Such an honor to play 'oud on this and to have arranged it! Thanks Naika, Sharifa and Berklee
AliyaCyconMusic Fantastic job, your play takes this song to another dimension. All best !
I used to listen to this song many years ago and then I forgot about it. Now with everything that has been going on in Gaza for more than a year, I am listening to it again and I can’t stop crying, this song has a completely different meaning for me now. What a cruel world we live in 😢🇵🇸
This music deserves the Oscar!
There’s a little boy, in a little house
He loves attention
And in his loving home when the lights go out
He wants to play
He says: “Look at me mommy, look at me!
I am flying can you see?”
But the little boy hears his mother cry
It’s all familiar
And with this noise outside he knows where to hide
And holds her close
She says “look at me baby, look at me
In your heart I’ll always be”
Stop the war
Stop the war before he falls
Stop the war
He’s a dreamer
He is pure
When the darkness clears
His home disappears
The world is turning
And through the cloudy sky a man opens his eyes
And yells, and prays
He screams “look at me boy look at me
Can you hear me can you breathe?”
But paralyzed from the scene
Not one tear falls on his cheek
Stop the war
Stop the war before he falls
Stop the war
He’s a dreamer
He is pure
Another little girl in another house
She loves affection
And in her loving home when the lights go out
She wants to play
She wants to play
I heard this song many years ago and then forgot about it. Now with everything that is happening in Israel a year ago on 7/010/2024 I am listening to it again and I can't stop crying, this song has a completely different meaning for me now. What a cruel world we live in 🇵🇸
Stop the war
He is pure
He doesn't know what you are fighting for
Stop the war before he falls 😢😢😢😢❤
I love how they make music with western and eastern instruments without making each other "the other".
he's a dreamer he'se pure he doesn't know what your're fighting for 😢
Honestly! This is what I call real music. Literally I'm crying. Love n respect from India 🇮🇳
Stop the war, children don't know what are you fighting for.. They are pure, let them living their innocence 🕯️
💔💔💔 Art at it’s purest; it’s heartbreaking yet so beautiful ; it’s so tender yet resilient.
Please don’t ever take this down. I keep coming back to it again and again. The arrangement is so gorgeous. Makes me want to write a short film built around it just so I can use this. Any time I play it it’s in my head for the rest of the day.
One of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a very long time ...
She is haitian, haiti is so proud of Naïka 🇭🇹 🇭🇹 🇭🇹
Just discovered what real art is
Precious wow .... 👏❤
omg these arabic instruments are killing me
The beauty of her voice met with the beauty of the Arabic music, WOW!!

There’s a little boy, in a little house
He loves attention
And in his loving home when the lights go out
He wants to play

But the little boy hears his mother cries
It’s all familiar
And with this noise outside he knows where to hide
And holds her close
She says “look at me baby, look at me
In your heart I’ll always be”
Stop the war
Stop the war before he falls
Stop the war
He’s a dreamer
He is pure
Now, when the darkness clears
His home disappears
The world is turning
And through the cloudy skies a man opens his eyes
And yells, and prays
He screams “look at me boy look at me
Can you hear me can you breathe?”
But terrorized by the scene
Not one tear falls on his cheek

Stop the war
Stop the war before he falls
Stop the war
He’s a dreamer
He is pure
He doesn't know what you're fighting for
Stop the war
Stop the war
before he falls
Stop the war
He’s a dreamer
He is pure
so Stop your war
Stop your war (x8)
Another little girl in another house
She loves affection
And in her loving home when the lights go out
She wants to play
She wants to play
Can not unsee the children of gaza in this song! Stop the genocide in Gaza
I attended many of Berklee’s summer free concerts in Boston & Cambridge. This is an extraordinary voice with a very sad story. It brought tears to my eyes.
I can see you dueting with Tamino perfectly! Who agrees?
Oh my God... I am in tears. This is the most beautiful and heart breaking thing I've heard in a long time. Thank you. Very relevant for the current world situations. May God protect those under oppression and suffering injustice on a daily basis. Ameen.
She is an amazing singer, beautiful. Really talented.

the most beautifull and sweeeeeeet song i heard allll of my liiiiife, i love it sm
this pain of this war is so much the heart is about to burst in 1000 peaces , so heavy on the mind and soul barely can breathe ../
A stunningly moving and beautifully performed piece - many congratulations to all involved. The whole performance provokes tears & cuts through to the heart. I was especially struck by Naika's voice (& composition) and Aliya's Oud - but it's a little invidious to single individuals out. A profound & (regrettably) timeless Truth. Thank you so much.
This is amazing! Thank you!
Spanish flair, Middle Eastern flavour, Indian beats -how wonderfully eclectic. So proud of you girl. I wish you so much success.
one of the best songs from this generation 😮😮😮
I listen to it over and and over. And I cry....
