That's right. That's right. Both of us have stories to tell about how we become connected to the other person's culture.

Mine goes back to, yes, you're right, from childhood in Iran and the exposure that I had to records that came from Latin America to Iran.

And later on, of course, coming to Texas, I got exposed to Andean and Latin American music. And that was the beginnings of my contact with Javier's culture.

That's right. And what you will find interesting is that that song actually originally was a Persian love song that Javier translated the lyrics into Spanish. [Music]

Well, I guess I would be taking it to the next level. Yeah.

That would be one level. We're actually making it a dance, much more of a dance music. Of course, we don't know where it's going to go. We did this because we really loved to do it. But where it goes, it's God willing.

Ojala. [Laughter]

Khodāhāfez.
