Public Concerns Addressed to Sultan

One of...

Yes, our presence is born of longing. I am not rebelling against the state.

Our presence is born of longing, a message to be conveyed to the Sultan.

If the officials have not realized that your people are suffering, then solve the problems

of your people. Do not let other peoples be better than us.

We live as free Omanis. And the adviser...

The adviser, the adviser.

We advise neighboring peoples, treating them as equals.

Let no people be better than us. We live in the Sultan's glory.
