#100SongsInitiative ENTRY #100 We made it. Our final entry. We chose this song for three reasons. First, we wanted the last song to be sung in Fusha so that it would be representative of all the Arabs, rather than a dialect which would be represent one group. Second, we wanted to end the project the way we started it, with Fairouz whom we love very much. Finally, the song's theme echoes with why we started this project; it's so that we can share our love for music (Arabic music specifically) with you all, and as the verses of the poem declare; singing is indeed the secret behind immortality and existence. May our music never cease to be, and may our songs be played till the end of time. We thank each and everyone of you who encouraged us to proceed with the initiative even when the journey seemed so long and troublesome. We are ecstatic that we were able to see it through, and even though it took a few months over a year, we're finally there. We promise to keep uploading more music in the future and to take all of your requests one by one. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Poem by Gibran Khalil Gibran Khalil Gibran (/dʒɪˈbrɑːn/; sometimes spelled Kahlil;[a] full Arabic name Gibran Khalil Gibran (Arabic: جبران خليل جبران‎ / ALA-LC: Jubrān Khalīl Jubrān or Jibrān Khalīl Jibrān) (January 6, 1883 – April 10, 1931) was a Lebanese-American writer, poet and visual artist. Gibran was born in the town of Bsharri in the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate, Ottoman Empire (modern day Lebanon), to Khalil Gibran and Kamila Gibran (Rahmeh). As a young man Gibran emigrated with his family to the United States, where he studied art and began his literary career, writing in both English and Arabic. In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero. A member of the New York Pen League, he is chiefly known in the English-speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, an early example of inspirational fiction including a series of philosophical essays written in poetic English prose. The book sold well despite a cool critical reception, gaining popularity in the 1930s and again especially in the 1960s counterculture. Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Laozi.[ ------------------------------------------------------------ Nouhad Wadie' Haddad (Arabic: نهاد وديع حداد‎) (born November 21, 1935), known as Fairuz (Arabic: فيروز‎), also spelled Fairouz, Feyrouz or Fayrouz, is a Lebanese singer who is one of the most admired and influential singers in the Arab songs are constantly heard throughout the region. She is also known as an icon in modern Arabic music.
