SALAM

Saad Lamjarred's song 'SALAM' is a vibrant celebration of love, cultural pride, and unity. The title itself, 'SALAM,' which means 'peace' in Arabic, sets the tone for the song's message. Throughout the lyrics, Lamjarred emphasizes spreading love and peace, greeting listeners with 'السلام عليكم' (peace be upon you) and encouraging them to respond with 'ردو السلام' (return the greeting). This traditional Islamic greeting is a call for mutual respect and harmony, reflecting the song's overarching theme of unity and togetherness.

The song also highlights Lamjarred's Moroccan heritage and the beauty of Amazigh culture. He references 'Amazighia,' the indigenous people of North Africa, and invites listeners to join in an 'Amazighi dance.' This cultural pride is further emphasized with phrases like 'Beauty amazighia damn' and 'My baby arabia,' showcasing a deep appreciation for his roots. The use of multiple languages, including Arabic, French, and Amazigh, adds to the song's rich cultural tapestry, making it a celebration of diversity and multiculturalism.

At its core, 'SALAM' is a love song. Lamjarred expresses his affection and happiness, singing about how his love makes him feel complete and joyful. Lines like 'I’m in love, I’m not alone' and 'You make me happy' convey a sense of fulfillment and contentment. The repeated invitation to dance and the upbeat, rhythmic nature of the song create an atmosphere of joy and celebration, inviting listeners to join in the festivities and spread love and peace in their own lives.
