Slowly the bluish spring moon climbs the houses, sliding up the minarets into the clicking palm-trees, and with it the city seems to uncurl like some hibernating animal dug out of its winter earth, to stretch and begin to drink in the music of the three-day festival.

As the bluish spring moon gradually rises in the sky, it illuminates the city, climbing up the houses and minarets, casting a gentle light over the scene. The city feels like a hibernating creature awakening from a long winter, ready to stir and come alive again.

With the arrival of the moon, the city begins to embrace the festivities, absorbing the lively sounds of a three-day festival. The imagery suggests a sense of renewal and vibrant energy as the city awakens and celebrates under the night sky.
