Sama (Turkish: Sema, Persian and Arabic: سَمَاع - samā‘un) is a Sufi ceremony performed as dhikr. Sama means "listening", while dhikr means "remembrance". These rituals often includes singing, playing instruments, dancing, recitation of poetry and prayers, wearing symbolic attire, and other rituals. It is a particularly popular form of worship in the Chishti order of the Indian subcontinent.
In 2008, UNESCO confirmed the "The Mevlevi Sama Ceremony" of Turkey as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.
This term stems from the root-verb meaning acceptance by tradition, from which derives the words سَمْع (sam‘un) and اِسْتِمَاع (’istimā‘un, listening), often paired with نَقْل (naqlun) and تَقْلِيد (taqlīdun, tradition). It may have been in use since the 10th century to refer to a type of dhikr (remembrance of God), a spiritual concert, a ceremony used by various Sufi orders, particularly the Chishti order of the sub-continent. It often involves prayer, song and dance.
China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC), is a sovereign state in East Asia. It is the world's most populous country, with a population of over 1.35 billion. The PRC is a one-party state governed by the Communist Party, with its seat of government in the capital city of Beijing. It exercises jurisdiction over 22 provinces; five autonomous regions; four direct-controlled municipalities (Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and Chongqing); two mostly self-governing special administrative regions (Hong Kong and Macau); and claims sovereignty over Taiwan.
Covering approximately 9.6 million square kilometers, China is the world's second-largest country by land area, and either the third or fourth-largest by total area, depending on the method of measurement. China's landscape is vast and diverse, ranging from forest steppes and the Gobi and Taklamakan deserts in the arid north to subtropical forests in the wetter south. The Himalaya, Karakoram, Pamir and Tian Shan mountain ranges separate China from South and Central Asia. The Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, the third- and sixth-longest in the world, run from the Tibetan Plateau to the densely populated eastern seaboard. China's coastline along the Pacific Ocean is 14,500 kilometres (9,000 mi) long, and is bounded by the Bohai, Yellow, East and South China Seas.
João Pedro dos Santos Gonçalves (born 15 April 1982 in Beja), known as China, is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Cypriot club Nea Salamis Famagusta FC as a left back.

They don't wanna see me shine
Don't wanna see me shine
Don't wanna see me fly
Don't wanna see me ride
They don't wanna see me shine
Don't wanna see me shine
Don't wanna see me fly
Don't wanna see me ride
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
As long as I'm alive, no hater gon' never stop my drive
I get it and make it multiply, anything else is suicide
Enemy of the world, that's I energy of an eagle eye
See no evil and I hear no lie, niggas don't wanna see me fly
Higher than a rocket ship, life is not rocket science
Every day is documented, all of my time is occupied
I'm gon' grind and I'm gon' shine, ballin' 'til the end of time
Hate on me and it's all fine, you just ain't no friend of mine
I'm tryin' to focus on bigger and better things
With so many odds against me, I had to step up my game
Imagine problems with crooked coppers
Why they wanna go there? Tried to pop me, lock me
But couldn't knock me off my square
I'm not surprised, you haters wanted to see
Flesh stretched out without my thugs, one steady stressin' out
But we doin' our own thing, the Bone thing
You suckas fail every time tryin' to stop my shine
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
Stay away, fade away, playa hater
Stay away, fade away, playa hater
I need you to stay away, fade away, playa hater
Stay away, fade away, playa hater
Twenty four seven grindin', tryin' to get my shine on
That don't give 'em a reason to hate me, hate me, hate me
But I know my mind's strong, none of you suckas can break me
Ha, nothin' can save ya now, they caught the Krayzie vapors
Stay away, fade away, playa hater
There's really no need to be crowdin' me
'Cause I can't deal with you haters surroundin' me, houndin' me
Tryin' to get my paper, hard to keep my faith up
It's time for me to raise up and do this sucker shake up
True T-H-U-G's and we come to kill you, kill you, kill you
I think they might be scared to let me shine
'Cause I'm a righteous playa, I'm a righteous playa
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
('Cause they don't wanna, they don't wanna
They don't wanna see me shine)
See me, stack your paper, they hate my grind
Catch me, push that's why I got my swagga down
But never slip in, the clip in, I know they want my life
Any weakness, not here, they know that Wish gon' ride
Hit the streets with that better love
Watch out if you kiss and tell, you know not to show 'em love
It's just that they talk too much, they never know who to trust
And just when you get enough, a target you will become
That's just the hater way
It's the devil's perpetuation, tryin' to make my innocence
It's my retaliation, I don't need no ignorance
I'm standing against this army with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Harmony
Danger is just a part of me, like it's stuck in my arteries
These poor playa haters are the motivators but I get my paper, paper
Same rappers that hate us call for verses so we can take from them
Critics, we can't escape for them, don't you think too much Hennessy
Ain't no time for to be slippin', we the world's worst enemy
(I just got to know)
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
(They don't wanna see me shine, they don't wanna see me shine)
Why they gotta hate? Steady hatin' mine
(I just gotta know)
Smilin' in my face, fakin' on the side
They don't wanna see me shine
(They don't wanna see me shine, they don't wanna see me shine)
So many people said we wouldn't take it
So many people said we couldn't make it
So I made it up in my mind

So I made it up in my grind

I just gotta know, I just need to know
(While you keep hating, I'ma keep shining)
