about

Mey ( Wine)

I created this version of this song whilst imprisoned on Manus Island, in Australia's cruel refugee prison camp.

This song means a lot to me . It was part of my survival and resistance. I performed it with other people in detention and many other musicians since I got released after nearly 8 years .

It is now a part of the Freedom Is Beautiful documentary, premiering at the Sydney Film Festival 2023.

I hope you love it as much as I do .

The original is sung by my lovely friend Firmesk Hafiz.
