Rajioun
Originally released in 1957 as a result of the Palestinian catastrophe 'AlNakba', this album placed flames in the hearts of the Arabs at that time and earned the Rahbani Brothers the title 'Abbaa El3amal Alfedaii/Fathers of the Sacrificial Work (Resistance)'. The emotions filled in Fairouz 's voice, and the great poetic/musical pieces are what make this album a 'prodigy' as Nagat Kassab, a critic, calls in the article 'Art and Land', written in 1957 and found in the booklet of the album. This album is a must if you are one of us. We are the professionals of the sorrow and the awaiting.

All Songs were written by:The Rahbani Brothers.
