The Song of National Mourning of the Lebanese Diva

In the lyric version of Aranjuez, the Lebanese song " To Beirut" may be the most widely sung rendition. Whenever the country faces hardship, Arabic-speaking singers and the public naturally turn to this "Song of National Mourning," written by the great Lebanese poet Joseph Harb. While Lebanese diva Fairuz was not the first to sing this song, her rendition is considered the most iconic and is the most frequently played version.
