Enjoy listening to your instrumentals Paul!

Part of my Oud Taqsims · Meditative Journeys in Sound collection.
Each piece is a short oud improvisation, between two and three minutes, exploring different maqams and scales that express both emotion and stillness.

I arranged these recordings for moments when I want my walks or quiet hours to be guided only by the sound of the oud. Some tracks include subtle ambient layers to sustain a meditative tone, but the focus always remains on the natural warmth of the instrument.

The oud, with its deep wooden resonance and voice-like tone, has long been cherished for its soothing and introspective qualities. Its melodies have a way of slowing the breath and drawing the mind into calm reflection.

If you enjoy my more melodically lyrical works where the oud leads within full ensembles, listen to my album Strings of a Compass.
This series, however, stays closer to silence—a personal dialogue between breath and string, created for mindfulness, focus, and peaceful thought.

هذه المقطوعة جزء من مجموعة تقاسيم عود · رحلات تأملية في الصوت.
كل تقاسيمها قصيرة وعفوية، تعبر بين المقامات لتوازن بين السكون والعاطفة.
أعددتُها لأوقاتٍ أريد فيها أن يرافقني صوت العود وحده في هدوءٍ وتأملٍ صادق، حيث تمتزج الأنفاس مع الأوتار وتصفو الروح.

Lyrics:

Were we close? 
Were we friends? 
Not sure, but it was fun back then
Do you remember? 
Well, I don't
Feels like we're all just walking with ghosts

Walking in a photograph
like a sad lost thing
Walking with ghosts
that used to know me
If you try to find me, 
I will be walking with ghosts
Walking with ghosts

I have been hollowed out 
and filled with something else
Old lives, they hover in shadows
and when we talk, we’re talking with ghosts

Talking to a photograph
that I’ll always keep
Talking with ghosts
that used to know me
As tomorrow leaves me
I will be talking with ghosts
Talking with ghosts

When the sober morning comes to show 
the past has gone away
Our translucent bodies lay below 
in a memory grave
We are nobody

Walking in a photograph
of forgotten dreams
Walking with ghosts
that used to know me
The days worth living behind me
So, I will be walking with ghosts
Walking with ghosts

Walking With Ghosts
