Local Sound Clips: All clips here have
been converted to the popular .ra format. You can listen
to them using real player from www.real.com (if you don't have a
copy already - it's free). The quality is acceptable but not CD
quality (it takes lots of resources to do otherwise). Please DO
NOT bookmark (or link to) individual sound files since we move
them constantly to balance server load. You may keep a copy on
your local machine but may *NOT* redistribute them - this is a
violation of a copyrighted material.
- Min Sijin Akka Til'at Janaazeh
... [ 52 K, ra ] (from the Akka (Acre) prison, a
funeral has emerged). Thanks to Rayan Hijazi who first
came here looking for the song. As a Palestinian, you got
to know about it. In brief, during the British mandate of
Palestine and their assistance to the zionist activities,
our people started to resist and were faced by the
British occupation who sought to crush them without mercy.
Tuesday was known as the day of execution (by hanging -
believe it or not!). The three heros: Mohammad Jamjoum,
Fu'ad Hijazi and Ata Az-Ziir were scheduled for "mass
execution" and after handing their will to their
relatives and saying farewell to their moms, dads and
sisters, they competed to the hanging ropes in a display
of heroism that lived and will continue to live in our
memory. The song is very emotional and if you understand
Arabic, it is hard to control your tears.
We have recently obtained the tape with the full song (many thanks to Mr. M. Shuqair). We will post more clips when we upgrade our equipment. For the time being, here are two (low quality) clips: Min sijin - clip 1 and Min Sijin - clip 2.
