Story & context
This category covers authored works and their circulation, including theatrical use of heritage. Nahil Salloum studies Rahbani theatre; each song needs its production and credits identified.
Words & melody across versions
Reading & comparisonTrack inherited material, added lyrics, melodic development, stage arrangement and rerecording separately. Popular circulation does not erase authorship.
What remains open?
No dated beginning or first version is established here. A named recording or earlier document is needed; the source date records documentation, not origin.

Sources retain their original language. The editing date does not mean every link was rechecked or the earliest recording found.
How to read this archive
We distinguish words, melody, performance and arrangement. A source supports a specific claim; a missing credit does not prove historical anonymity. Open questions remain visible in each entry, ready for new testimony or recordings.
These paths describe circulation and cultural association, not exclusive origins or ownership. The same entry may belong to several regions.
