"Baheb Nuoa Kalamak" ("I love what you say") is a wildly popular Arabic pop-song written by Ahmed Darwesh and exclusively chosen for Amal Hijazi's album, Baya al Ward. This amazing fast-beat song was released in the early 2007 and received huge critical acclaim from the beginning. The music video was directed by the famed, Mirna Khayat. It was chosen over Yahia Sa’adeh.

According to the Qatar based daily, "Al Raya", Hijazi revealed that she had received numerous scripts for the clip by different directors because of the immense popularity of the song, even before the music video was released.

Track Information

This song portrays Hijazi as a beautiful, young aristocratic girl.

It begins with Hijazi dressed in a beautiful black gown, standing besides an elderly man (presumably her father). The music begins when she sees her lover's face besides a huge mirror nearby. She gets into a car with her father and the music stops in for an interval. While in the car, as Hijazi thinks of her love, we hear her earlier song "Baya al Ward", a sad love-ballad.

Hijazi begins to sing in the car, while in flash-shots we see her lover painting a portrait dedicated to her.

After the car shot, Hijazi is seen sitting with her father with some relatives who are busy chattering. As it is seen, Hijazi expresses that she is extremely bored with them. She tales excuse and goes out of the restaurant to her lover. The two of them break into a run and he shows Hijazi her portrait.

Afterwards, the two of them dance and skip around and at the end of the song as it is revealed, she leaves her father and goes to her lover.
