about

Way before oil was found in Bahrain, from the 3rd century BC until the early 20th century, pearl diving was the main income of the island. When the Bahraini men used to set sails far into the treacherous seas to find some pearls, they were aware of the risk they're taking, fearing to never return home. So they sang and danced for hours on the Dhow to forget their threatening situation.

The song Oh Ya Mal is close to what they used to sing, to give you the feeling of the whole pearl diving journey
