Music featured during the credits of this episode comes from Addi Ouadderrou and his Amazigh group, Amoud, performing at a Somerville Mimouna.
The group Amoud named itself after an indigenous Moroccan word that means “seeds.” They symbolize themselves as seeds of their culture that will grow and flourish. All members of the group are Imazighen (pronounced Im-a-zeer-en) the native people of North Africa who speak the language Tamazight (pronounced Tam-a-zeert). Amoud’s Moroccan rhythms derive from traditional poetic songs that speak about love, nature, and community.
The selected song featured during the credits is a love song where a lover is looking at many girls on top of a wall (building) but only one girl fills his eyes and he sees her as the most beautiful among all girls. The words are:
“Been in love is like if one is attached by rope
There is no Doctor that can free the one in love
Flowers all lined up on top of a wall
But one rose stood out in the middle of all flowers.”~~Translation courtesy of Addi Ouadderou.
