correction but I always thought Fairuz was a Palestinian Christian who settled in Lebanon and who preferred to deny her Palestinian roots. I may of course be wrong but my father loved Fairuz and I recall attending a concert she did in London where she sang her famous and very moving song on Al Quds, a concert that was recorded and which I have to this day on an LP which I listen to quite often as it fills me with great nostalgia, reminding me of my father.
The song reminds me of my childhood in Palestine, of my last holiday to Al Quds back in 1964 . It makes me cry every time I listen to it, along with the other songs she sang at this concert all related to Palestine and Jerusalem as these songs were all telling a story.
Al Quds is indeed important to both Muslim and Christian Palestinians and should and must be defended as the Jews are turning this Holy City into a den of Sin and immoral filth.
Very moving and powerful. Anyone who has a blog should reblog this.
It will arrive , one day Jerusalem .
just a quick note to say that I was wrong about Fairuz [born Nouhad Wadi Haddad] being of Palestinian origins. My apologies.
But she will always remind me of my father through her songs. Will remind me of Palestine, of Lebanon and Syria, three countries I spent my childhood in and her beautiful voice always resonated in my heart and the concert she did in London back in the 1960s to which my father too us to as she represented our rich Arab culture. and of which I have an LP to remind me of it.
It made me weep. I wonder how long these impostors will remain in our Jerusalem. Hope we will always be united.
