Translations By Tahseen Alkoudsi

Note from Shira: Tahseen Alkoudsi, the contributor of the translations on this page, died in October, 2006. I don't have details of the cause, but I do know he was ill for some time, so it wasn't a surprise to me. But even when you know someone is sick, you're still not prepared for the day they move on. I have posted his obituary here for those who would like to know more about the man behind the translations.

Through doing these many Arabic song translations that he created for the belly dance community, Tahseen has left us a legacy of caring, a legacy that will keep his memory alive.

As you use the translations on this page, please join me in honoring the memory of Tahseen.
