Note: *Mawali was translated as serenades. Mawal isn't a serenade per se, but here Najwa means to say that her heartfelt music and songs aren't reaching her lover, so we chose to go with serenade as a translation, as they're often imbued with strong feelings of love and affection, and to clear the ambiguity the word “mawal“ would elicit.
