The Great Maestro Farid El Atrache sings one
of his famous songs in Arabic Classic Musical
"Melody in my Life" (1975).
Starring Farid El Atrache, Mervat Amin and
Hessein Fahmy.
Trivia...
This song was originally written for Georgina
Rizk upon her winning Miss Universe Pageant
in 1971. The lyrics started as "Georgina
Georgina... Habbaynaki Hebbina" Yet, the
Lebanese Radio station refused to broadcast
it due to a law that forbade broadcasting
songs on public figures at that time.
Therefore, Farid El Atrache decided to change
the lyrics into "Hebbina Hebbina...
Habbaynaki Hebbina" and release the song in
the film.
The Lebanese Radio Station's loss is indeed
Arabic Cinema's gain. Tags :FaridAlAtrashMervatAminHusseinFahmyArabicFilmفريدالأطرشفيلمعربينغمفيحياتيحسينفهميميرفتأمين

A touching scene from Arabic Classic Musical
"Melody in my Life" (1975).
Starring Farid El Atrache, Mervat Amin and
Hessein Fahmy.
What makes this short scene very special is
the fact that Farid El Atrache never got
married or had any children, therefore, it is
really amusing to see him play oud to a
little child. Tags :FaridAlAtrashMervatAminArabicFilmفريدالأطرشفيلمعربينغمفيحياتي
