Behold...The Mighty Word

Dear Viewer:

Press on the video below and watch the bird twist and dance. Listen to the singer croak in Arabic.

What does he say? He loves and is protective of all sorts of fruits--mangoes, banana, grapes, dates--big and small, red, yellow and brown.
Is he talking about fruits! Women! People! cultures!

Welcome to the world of connotations.
