Pilaf, Pilaf - In Collaboration

In the Name of Allah (SWT) , The omniscient the exalted one

Pilaf, Pilaf
hithertosoneteer

[Verse 1]
Two or three cups of rice in the bowl,
Warm purified water, let it softly roll.
A spoon of ghee, salt to your taste,
Crispy onions ready—nothing goes to waste.

[Pre-Chorus]
Blend the rice and onions smooth,
Add a little water, find the right groove.
Pour it in and blend once more,
Till it’s silky, ready to pour.

[Chorus]
Pilaf, pilaf, warm and golden,
Spread it thin and let it brown.
Olive oil across the pan,
Turn it gently, lift it now.
Garnish, serve it while it’s steaming,
Pass a plate around the table.
Pilaf, pilaf, hot and hearty,
Supper’s ready—come and gather!

[Verse 2]
Add olive oil, coat the pan,
Spread the batter as thin as you can.
Fry it slowly till the edges turn brown,
Flip it over, let the other side round.

[Chorus]
Pilaf, pilaf, warm and golden,
Spread it thin and let it brown.
Olive oil across the pan,
Turn it gently, lift it now.
Garnish, serve it while it’s steaming,
Pass a plate around the table.
Pilaf, pilaf, hot and hearty,
Supper’s ready—come and gather!

[Outro]
A little garnish, one last taste,
Serve it hot—there’s none to waste.
