A song written in the perspective of Shota Rustaveli, a Georgian poet whose last refuge was Palestine, where he died in Jerusalem and still remains to this day. In the Soviet Era, Rustaveli became something of a national hero, with his works being translated into languages across the Eastern Bloc. His final resting place being in Palestine additionally provided a further link between the Soviet Union and the Palestinian liberation struggle, whom they shared close ties with. Performer: All-Union Grand Radio Choir and Symphony Orchestra (Большой Хор и Большой Симфонический Оркестр Всесоюзного Радио) Year recorded: 1966 Composer: Otar Taktakishvili (ოთარ თაქთაქიშვილი) Lyricist: Irakli Abashidze (ირაკლი აბაშიძე) Image: Poster “Glory to the Soviet People“, Abu Manu, 1987.
