Syrian singer releases ‘Heidi Ommi’ in Dubai for Mother’s Day

Syrian songwriter Leen Moukhmalji has released her new song, Heidi Ommi, from Dubai to mark Mother’s Day, in a project that pays tribute to mothers and expresses gratitude to the UAE.

Moukhmalji said she dedicated the song’s lyrics to the UAE as a gesture of appreciation for what she described as the safety, care and stability the country provides to everyone living on its soil.

She said Dubai has become an integral part of her personal journey and a constant source of inspiration, adding that launching the song from the city reflects her connection to the UAE and what it represents to her. She described Dubai as a place that has become home.

Moukhmalji also said the song reflects her affection for the UAE, which she described as a motherly presence that offers protection in difficult times and provides conditions for dignity, stability and well-being.

The release coincides with the UAE’s Year of Family 2026, aligning the project with themes of family cohesion, emotional connection and mutual appreciation within society.

Heidi Ommi was written and produced by Moukhmalji. The audio production was created using artificial intelligence tools through the Suno platform, in an experience that combines human emotion with contemporary music production technology.

Moukhmalji said the project emerged from personal experience and that she had been writing lyrics related to Mother’s Day for more than a year before turning one of them into a complete song.

“The role of a mother in a person’s life cannot be described in words, yet we always try to express at least a small part of that love,” she said. “For more than a year, I have been writing songs for Mother’s Day, until modern technology and artificial intelligence gave me the opportunity to turn one of these songs into a complete artistic work that can reach the public.”

She said the song carries a message of love and appreciation for every mother and expressed hope that its lyrics would resonate with listeners, allowing each person to find an echo of their own relationship with their mother. She also described the track as a symbolic expression of gratitude to the UAE for giving her a sense of security and stability.

The song was released on YouTube on March 16, 2026, and became available on other music platforms on March 18, 2026.

Moukhmalji has written lyrics for several songs, including Qissat Waqt, performed by Linda Bitar, Jann El Leileh, performed by Sanad Al Osairi, Shway Ziyadeh, performed by Karam Salibi, and Baad Bekir, performed by Aser Abdo.
