Nudity or nakedness is the state of wearing no clothing. The wearing of clothing is exclusively a human characteristic. The amount of clothing worn depends on functional considerations (such as a need for warmth or protection from the elements) and social considerations. In some situations the minimum amount of clothing may be socially acceptable, while in others much more clothing is expected.
Modern humans are the only survivors of several species of naked apes who may have worn clothes, according to DNA studies of clothing lice. This study suggests that clothing may have been used as long ago as 650 thousand years ago – much longer than previously thought. Embarrassment and shame may be consequences of the prolonged infancy of human offspring whose care implies a state of monogamy for some long time, together with the reduction of the temptations of infidelity
People, as individuals and in groups, have varying attitudes towards their own nudity. Some people are relaxed about appearing less than fully clothed in front of others, while others are uncomfortable or inhibited in that regard. People are nude in a variety of situations, and whether they are prepared to disrobe in front of others depends on the social context in which the issue arises. For example, people need to bathe without clothing, some people also sleep in the nude, some prefer to sunbathe in the nude or at least topless. Many people are prepared to disrobe for a medical examination, while others are nude in other situations. Some people adopt nudism as a lifestyle.
Que te dit ton coeur, lui qui ne demande qu'à voir
Au-delà des leurres, des fruits du hasard
Il est des mystères, des songes qui parfois t'égarent
Comme en une prière, il suffit de croire
Quel est le visage qu'adoptera ton destin
De son début jusqu'à la fin
Il suffit de croire
Observe les présages qui jalonnent ton chemin
Que te dit ton coeur, lui qui ne demande qu'à voir
Au-delà des leurres, des fruits du hasard
Refrain:
Entre les lignes, Kechef Touha
Y voir un signe, Min Al Rabba
Frôler les cimes, Fi Rouhouqa
Toucher l'infime, Al Tarika
Tout près de la Terre
Les yeux caressant le ciel
Cherchent l'éphémère en une étincelle
J'attends cette fleur
Ce doux don de l'éternel
Qui, dès qu'il se meurt
Sonne comme un rappel
Quel est le visage qu'adoptera ton destin
De son début jusqu'à la fin
Il suffit de croire
Observe les présages qu jalonnent ton chemin
Et t'expriment des lendemains
Sonnent comme un rappel
Refrain
Certaines vérités empruntent de singulières voix
Il suffit de croire
Fuit la cécité et soit éclairé dans tes choix
Dans les courbes que dressent tes pas
