Abstract

People around the world appreciate the exceptional role of women for contributions in life right from its beginning till it ends. They have always been recognized for their outstanding impact on the cultural and educational aspects of life. Accordingly, women have the greatest responsibility of taking care of the family. During their course of life, women have used different types of hymns and related each of them to a certain act. They found that their hymns carried solutions for every question brought up by nature and life, therefore, women have used hymns as a means of overcoming events and troubles of life. The study tackles the concept of hymns for their social and cultural importance in individuals' lives, the issue which was explored by discussing the types and forms of hymns. The researcher deals with the hymns that linked the mother to her baby and how these hymns bonded them in many different ways. The study reviewes the most prominent hymns that are related to the lives of women and their children, including the lullaby ‘Altnwima', as a world heritage practiced by most of the people of the earth. The researcher chose the Iraqi lullaby and its hymns ‘Altnwima', which has been used by many generations. He analyzed its content and composition of music and concluded that this special hymn is a moral responsibility that generations must stick to, keep its content and maintain its shape and musical drama.
