Sidi

Sidi is a masculine title of respect, meaning "my master" in Darija and Egyptian Arabic (sayyid in other dialects) equivalent to modern popular usage of the English Mr.. It is also used in other Arabic dialects, such as Eastern Arabic, as well as by Muslims of the Indian subcontinent in the Urdu language; however, in these latter two cases, "Sidi" does not have so much currency as titles like sayed, janab or saheb.

Occasionally a respected member of a Muslim society will be given the title Sidi by default in recognition of upright standing and wisdom. This especially applies to marabouts, hence the term appears in places and mosques named after one.

In the Maghrebi kingdom of Morocco:

  • Sidi ('Lord'): the title used as a substitute for Mulay by those male members of the ruling Alawi dynasty sharing the first name of the Muslim Prophet, Muhammad
  • Smiyet Sidi: a style usually reserved for the Sovereign or the Heir Apparent, loosely, but imperfectly, translated as 'His Lordship' or 'Monseigneur'

    Love Is Like Oxygen

    by: Sweet

    Love is like oxygen
    You get too much you get too high
    Not enough and you're gonna die
    Love gets you high
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Time on my side
    I got it all
    I've heard that pride
    Always comes before a fall
    There's a rumour goin' round the town
    That you don't want me around
    I can't shake off my city blues
    Every way I turn I lose
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Time is no healer
    If you're not there
    Lonely fever
    Sad words in the air
    Some things are better left unsaid
    I'm gonna spend my days in bed
    I'll walk the streets at night
    To be hidden by the city lights
    City lights
    Love is like oxygen
    . . .
    Love is like oxygen
