[Sting]
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire
This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothing's as it seems
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes
This rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of her love
Aman aman aman
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
Omri feek entiya
Ma gheer entiya
Ma gheer entiya
Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower
This rare perfume, is the sweet intoxication of the fall
Ya lili ah ya leel

Thank you for this song. Not only is it gorgeous, but to collaborate with a Middle Eastern artist is SO important right now. I appreciate your statement in song. Thank you.
Peter Hollens + Alaa Wardi = MASTERPIECE
You gotta do "I Got Rhythm"... who could ask for anything more!?!?
Although Peter Hollens doing pretty much any Gershwin would be Gosh-WIN
Haha I'll see what I can do! :)
I miss these days. When Americans were enchanted by the mystique or the middle east and enjoyed hearing their music blended in. So very beautiful.
people still do, please dont confuse not liking a religion with not liking a culture
i think as a culture the middle east is very interesting and beautiful
i think religion wise that the middle east needs to adopt secularism and stop making laws based on religion
@@AVAL2775 hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
we still do. always will.
music has no boundaries and no limits
Absolutely gorgeous cover, Peter! You never disappoint!
thanks Donna!!
You're welcome.
Is there ANY genre you cannot do man? This was so different yet SO good!!!
thanks for the kind words Jonatan :) :)
Please accept my challenge... do a metal cover of something!
Mr1und2 HAHA I was just about to write that!!! 😂😂
Peter Hollens Do a metal cover we challenge you!!!!!
EDIT:(I just realized I didn't say please sorry....pleeeaaaase do a metal cover?)
The human voice is versatile ;)
Amazing job .. the only thing I want from you Peter to do more collab video with Alaa Wardi
that would be great!!!
(: Peter Hollens Wow you really replied .. thaaanks+
I stand by my opinion that this is not only one of my favorite covers of all time, but is probably the best thing Peter has made. Adore this song!
Oh. Sweet. Moses. My gosh. I just can’t even. Just. Wow. Wow.
Love the song and the visuals are stunning 😃
thanks Shania :)
Thank you so much.
I love this song! I associate it with the image of Arabian horses running free across the desert.
haha that's great!!
I though I was the only one...that's awesome!
the crazy thing is that this doesn't feel like an acapella at all. it feels like instruments are used when in reality, it's purely all human voice. plus it's insanely beautiful, from the song to the video. so freaking in love 😍
wow thanks so much Clara, that means the world! much love!
Peter Hollens you're welcome! you totally deserve it 😄 will definitely wait for your new videos soon! sending love for you and your family from Indonesia! 💕
I agree and alaa wardi certainly sounds like a deserest rose.
È una cosa indescrivibile l'emozione che trasmette questa canzone, il video...ma soprattutto le Voci...
Mi ricorda una canzone di Sting, e, a tratti una canzone araba!
Grazie...🙏🏻🏜🌹💜💙🤍🕊

Can I just love this a bajillion times??? I LOVE Sting!
Amidst the culture of hatred for Arabian culture you come out with a video featuring the language and their awesome, unique style of singing. That I think takes balls and I salute you or it! A very Christian thing to do, not shutting out people because of widespread prejudice. Thank you.
And a gorgeous video, at that! :)
Because art is the thing that must stay above all the politics and religion.
Be Water what a silly response, Waldgeist celebrated Hollens ability to accept others, which Peter demonstrated through by making a video like this, and you go on to rant about how backward a culture is. you do realize that accepting someone has nothing to do with that person's disposition, or their country of origins culture for that matter? particularly in the context of christianity, where we can see even Jesus's own parables about the good Samaritan, helping someone not of their race simply because it was, the right thing to do, regardles of what may happen to them.
for you all, "not all Arabs is Islam, and Islam hasn't always arab! Think with insight expanse, not narrow, do not just look at the info on your land alone!" and Islam does not like them (CNN, FOX, ABC and Hollywood movies) portray, read the Koran and you will know what real Islam
Around 700 AD Islam sprung up .. I think most people realize that Arabs are not all Islamists... this of course is a small comfort while killing and destruction is going on.
Both of your voices really blended perfectly of this cover!
thanks Matthew, I really appreciate that :)
I was in disbelief when I saw this on my youtube feed. This is my favorite song from Sting! I've never heard someone cover it before! :D I loved it! :)
really?! so glad you liked our version then! Thank you so much!
Peter Hollens Yesss same here! I was thinking, is this THE Desert Rose by Sting?? So happy you covered it!
Ditto. I often really appreciate covers, yet I don't recall any other covers of Desert Rose - hence the extra excitement when I saw this in my RSS feed!
Same here. I have always loved the song. So happy to hear it covered by Peter Hollens :)
Best Desert Rose cover ever.
Yes, the only one with the Arabic part done so well.
Amazing harmony
What a beautiful collaboration. This is how art enriches the world.
WOW...WOW...WOW!!!!! You just keep on soaring higher and higher, Peter!! This is so AMAZING!! Love everything about it, the lovely art of it!! The feeling in it! So timely, when our world seems to be getting more bogged down in prejudice, You and Alaa Wardi make this video in the universal language of music! Crossing barriers with lovely songs! Bless you! You are a day brightener!
thanks so much!! I'm so glad you see it that way :-) I thought it was timely as well :-)
Wow your voices together are magical!
Thanks bud!
The Hound + The Fox it's scary good 😁
Amazing
Music unites people! Music knows no borders!
just amazing!!! you did it again. I love this song and well I didn't know it was possible but your version made me fall in love with it even more!
:D wow thanks Gina!
And all I could think was the tardis... No ponds, no rivers, no roses, no smiths...
Ive never heard the original, but this is gold, nay, platinum
:D wow thanks!
F*** yeahhhhh! Best cover ever! Even Sting himself would be proud!
" Peter & wardi " the perfect duet ...
Every -- single -- time I hear this version I am struck by how beautiful the song and these 2 guys' voices are together. This cover is AWESOME! Love it!
Please do Edelweiss from the sound of music! I think that you could really make a gorgeous version of it.
I will consider it, thanks Morgan!!!
Великолепная песня и велиликолепное исполнение)))
U HAVE TALENT BROTHER IN CHRIST!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!
This is one of my favourite songs and I like this cover maybe as much as the original, which is saying something as I normally never ever like a Sting cover, especially for this song which is my favourite. One day I wish I walk in the desert and listen to it
When Peter Hollens came in...I got chills, I don't think I've ever heard his voice sound so emotional. This arrangement is hauntingly beautiful and made my stomach flip❤
I'll admit, I've never heard this song before. But this is so amazing, I love the effects and the quality of this video is just 10/10 ;) Awesome job, gorgeous videeo!
thanks Emma!!! It's a great song, isn't it??
Peter Hollens the video is dope!! song too.
wish u would do remember me from troy and more songs in this style... ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Peter Hollens
it's AMAZING!!
I lived in Saudi Arabia for seven years and came to love middle eastern music. I LOVE this! Thank you for showing the US that middle eastern music is awesome, too!
Yes Algerian is not part of the political Middle East, but it is part of the greater middle east. Most important, it is part of the middle east culture
GREATER MIDDLE EAST, and Algerian culture has everything to do with Middle East culture. As a Syrian myself from the Middle East I have nothing to share with the IRANIAN culture which is a Middle Eastern country, but feel home in Algeria with Algerians food, music, traditions, everything
SyrianVodo My country is NOT a part of "the greater middle east", stop talking nosense, his culture either.
Tiziri Whether you accept it or not. We are still part of the same world anyway.
@@doudou199704 what language and scales are used in the Algerian part then? This language is Arabic and originated from the Arabian peninsula and the music scales are Arabian scales. Stop excluding yourselves from Arabs. More than 50% of Algerians are from pure Arabian tribes that came from Arabia.
Sting will be impressed by how well you two did this.
these voices combine so well together. just dayum
See u 2 many days after!!! Remembering Jai Ho!!
Great song by the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excited about ur tutorials!!!! Please do a video on harmony!!
:) :) Thank you!!! Loved doing that one with Jai Ho!
Cool affects and great music. love the Arabic if that's what it is.
yes it is Arabic :)
Jake Orosco that's Algerian arabic
Jake Orosco yep it's Algerian Arabic
Please do I'm still here from treasure planet! Thanks
love it! Thanks Spencer :)
Spencer Bluhm. I love that song! it's grabbed my attention even when I was a little kid growing up on Treasure planet.
Definitely one of my favorites! The movie, the song, the story... Hopefully this one is coming out soon :)
I requested that songs a couple times too!
Yes!
Diversity is the strength of America! Love this! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
I love what you do
Alaa Wardi has such a magical, soulful voice that really touches you. A new fan has arrived :)

I remember I was probably 11 or 10 when I first heard this song.. I have loved it ever since.. First cover I find of it on UA-cam. The fact that it's Acapella makes it even better... Thank you for tihs!
Peter Hollens, working with Alaa Wardi made you a favourite in the Arab World... You have a great voice, I loved you the most with Alaa in Jai Ho
My family absolutely loves your music. All 8 of my kids and my wife love your music.
Awsome your voices are fantastic 😀
Wow very beautiful. I like it so much. As I wrote in one of the publications comment. If you can sing with Alaa Wardi in Arabic or Turkish.

GOOD GOD. Whoever asked you to do this song is a GENIUS. Love your version.
I feel nostalgic whenever I hear this song. when Algerian music was pure and melodious 💚❤
Aimen Mekaret Algeria ❤
it's not an algerian music.
@@kublood7045 I didn't say it was an Algerian song, I was referring to Mami's part, that music genre is called Raï and it is originated from west of Algeria, relax and enjoy.
This has always been one of my favorite songs by Sting, and you guys blew it away. It was truly magnificent! :D
thanks so much!!!
Awesome

Much appreciated it. Algeria

Remarkable song.Wardi added to the appeal by his beautiful singing.Peter Hollens you make every song great.
So gorgeous. Everytime I come back to this song I'm mesmerized all over again.
Oh my days I didn't know I needed this until the first 5 seconds.
Peter, your voice is so pure, so rich, so naturally beautiful. Never off key, always total perfection. Just lovely, every time!
I allready told you like a year ago but I'd still like to hear your version of "For the longest time" - Billy Joel. I realy like the and I'm sure you'd so a great job singing it. :)
thanks! I will keep that in my songs to consider list :)
The version of "For The Longest Time" you did with OTR has been one of my favorites for a really long time. I'd also love to hear an updated version of it by you!
This is literally magic. True story: Just made my day. Thank you for the almost 5 minutes of non-stop smiles!
I love this. very powerful. I've probably watched this 100 times.
Just.... Wow. Shukran laka, Peter.
WOW!!!! This is amazing. Thank you for keep going out of the box to bring us amazing and new pieces. :-)
thank you!! :D Trying to be creative :) haha
YES!!

Thanks Seth!! Any ones you'd like to see in particular?

My mom would always play this song whenever we were doing chores around the house. It is one of her favourite songs.
I shared this video with her on Facebook, she loves it.
thank you for doing something multi-cultural right now, especially. This is a beautiful way to show that Americans can and DO embrace people of other cultures, whet-ever is happening in Washington
I adore this song, always have. And your version is truly fantastic. Both of you do so well together, thank you for this.
When I am having a bad day, I just sit down and listen to your music. It just makes me feel happy and it just brighten my day!! I love you Peter and thank you for what you do!!
