Nabati poetry has been a feature of life in the Arabian Peninsula since the 16th
century. In certain eras, this poetry was the only record of historical events.
Historians only know of these events because the Nabati poems have been passed
down through generations. Nabati poetry shows the natural creativity of the
Gulf's inhabitants and represents their roots in this land. It is their everyday
dialect. A strong dialect, slightly removed from classical Arabic. It should be
studied so that it may be preserved.
