Sahara Moon 03:12
When the sun is sleeping You shine in its place My beautiful goddess of astronomical grace You flow like water Into my dreams as oxygen You bring me to life with silver beam kisses on my face I am your witti sahara onatti (Nubian) I am your majnoon sahara moon (Arabic / English) [Translation: I am crazy for you desert moon ] I am your lover You are my queen As you reign over this kingdom of emotions new to me I am your worshiper And to you I swear Ask me for Eden’s apple and I’ll bring you the whole damn tree I am your witti sahara onatti I am your majnoon sahara moon

In this place Where everything wears a silver crown I see your gentle face Laying softly on the moon lit ground And the top of the trees Are shimmering like the seas As your love Is drowning me In this place In this place Where all the blown kisses stay You and I will build A bed of them and then seduce our doubts away And the top of the trees Were shimmering like the seas As your love Is drowning me In this place In this place A twilight garden of you in my mind The magic of your smile Is the spell that takes me there every time Where the top of the trees Are shimmering like the seas As your love Is drowning me In this place

Your ink is the moonbeam Your hand my favorite pen Your touch is calligraphy Writing poetry on my skin I am lost in your bloom, with selenophilia Imagine you dancing through my room, in my sleeping cinema You are the muse for this tune, sweet autumnal giver Wish we were kissing under our moon, my equinox lover You are my equinox lover Your eyes make my skies Forever clear and never gray Your hair is my alter Your smile is to whom I pray I am lost in your bloom, with selenophilia Imagine you dancing through my room, in my sleeping cinema You are the muse for this tune, sweet autumnal giver Wish we were kissing under our moon, my equinox lover You are my equinox lover

Luna Luna 03:17
Luna dearest Luna I am waiting by the sea Luna beautiful Luna I am singing so appear to me By your magical rings and starry wings Oh divinity of the majestic night I offer to you my sheltered darker things To vanish them with your love and your light Luna dearest Luna I was waiting by the sea Luna beautiful Luna I was singing so appear to me

Moon Dancer 06:43
Moon dancer You’ve really put a spell on me Enchanted my dreams now all I can see Are the contours of your body swaying So now I look into the moon, I look into the moon Wishing you and I will be together soon Moon dancer You’ve really put a spell on me Enchanted my ears now all I can hear Is the heavenly song of your body swaying So now I look into the moon, I look into the moon Wishing you and I will be together soon Moon dancer You’ve really put a spell on me Enchanted my words with your smiling pearls And the versification of your body swaying So now I look into the moon, I look into the moon Wishing you and I will be together soon Moon dancer You’ve really put a spell on me Moon dancer Wishing you and I will be together soon

The season has come To learn from the leaves and change your colors Let go of the past And trust that the wind awaits to take you farther Only then will you see You are as unique as ever Your mind is not for them, no It is only for you to mold and weather To mold and weather When I’m in the night sighing Aching and dying I feel my heart scrying The light of the moon is willing Soothing and healing A beautiful feeling Of a new life.

about

Being a selenophile (moon lover) I was inspired to create an album that is dedicated to the moon and to my fellow selenophiles of the world. Also, this album features my very first full length song in my native tongue, Arabic.

I hope you enjoy the album, and please feel free to share it with all our fellow moon lovers out there.

I love you all so much, thank you for all the support and your patience, I hope this was worth it.

Big Moon Hugs for every one.
-Mosno.
