“In the enchanting city of Hama, everything prevents the viewer from any thinking… Large, three- or four-storey water-lifting wheels (Norias) direct the scooped water in the air to higher irrigation canals built of stones or wood to irrigate the surrounding orchards. The long melodies produced by the Norias spread over the ether … a forgotten dream on the river bank and part of a poem melodically expressed with a simple musical instrument of love and carefreeness."
