Congratulations, you have a lovely voice and a great feel for it. Great choice of song. I only have one comment (though your teacher might not agree):
playing slightly further away from the bridge might complement your voice even more.

Great job Jenny.
I am blown away by your natural talent.
Like Dave said, you play a bit close to a bridge.

@ Katakofka: It is a Sukar oud, made in Syria. And Nancy Ajram does this song? weird.... but at this point it is still only imitation (of waed
bouhassoun)
And Dave and Samir, I will try to play further away - the oud sounds very heavy to me in this video and not very graceful... perhaps this is why?
thank you for the comments!!!

Even with the modest recording quality, you got great talent 
Very well done
As for the risha.. and as a complement to my friends' advice about playing further from the bridge.. maybe holding the risha more parallel to the
strings would also produce a softer sound..
But again.. Bravo and keep it up! I would love to listen again to such a talented voice

I think you did a very good job. Comparing to the recording you are trying to imitate I would say very well done.

I believe I have heard this song when I was around 10 years old :-)
And if I am not mistaken, I believe this is by Om Kalthom (probaly from one of her earlier films!? Anyone who knows??)
Yes indeed, wanderfull voice and very well performed.
Thanks a lot for remineding me og this song.
The wood might be dead, but the oud is alive.

Finally the mistary solved :-)
The singer is Lara Keyrouz, known as Nahawand!
She is from Lebanon (not syria). Was Actually very big in the 1940s and 50s
And This is a very Beautifull song!
