Abeer Nehme - Li Beirut

For Beirut, the city which has come out from her pains and ruins, more beautiful each time. This piece was originally sang by Fairuz. This is part of the Aramaic and Sufi project developed by Abeer Nehme and Mehdi Aminian The Lyrics: "A greeting from my heart to Beirut kisses to the sea and to the houses to a rock, which is like an old sailor’s face She is made from the people’s soul..from wine She is from his sweat…a bread and Jasmins So how does her taste become? A taste of fire and smoke Beirut has a glory of ashes My city has turned out her lamp By a child’s blood, who was over her hand She’as shut her door, and became alone in the sky Alone with the night You are mine, you are mine Ah Hug me you are mine You are my flag, tomorrow stone And a travel’s waves My people’s wounds have flourished And mothers tear You are mine, you are mine Ah Hug me"
