Fairuz was born Nouhad Haddad in Jabal al Arz, Lebanon. She began her musical career as a teenager. From chorus girl at the Lebanese radio station in the late 1940s, to critical and popular acclaim from the 1950s to today, Fairuz is acknowledged not only for her musical talent and contribution, but also as a cultural and political icon. A symbol of a people, a heritage, a quest for peace, and of humanity. During most of her career, Fairuz reflected two other great artists, Assi and Mansour Rahbani. They wrote the lyrics and composed her tunes. Today, many of her songs reflect the composing talent of Ziad Rahbani who is Fairuz's son. Her songs testify to the Rahbani musical genius, as well as to Fairuz's broad musical background. Referred to as "The Soul of Lebanon" in the 1970s, Fairuz became a pre-eminent figure, a superstar of current music in the Arab world. Together, the Rahbani family is both a school of music and a cultural phenomenon.

Even without understanding the language this song is truly wonderful in its ability to induce such emotions in you. I wish I could understand this song in its original text..
Art like this has no boundaries. And the that’s the thing about beauty.. we may not be able to comprehend it, but there is something inside us which makes us drawn to it like a moth to a flame.
At our very core I believe we are fundamentally pretty basic creatures with simple needs.. beauty being one of them.
Artists have an integral role in our societies… they are responsible for getting us through some of the toughest times in our lives- by creating a sense of belonging (that there is someone else also going through something similar)
We do cherish our artist via fame and money— at least the successful ones… but it’s necessity as a whole in our society goes under the radar.
I myself did not have the talent or the courage to pursue it as a profession, but I urge us all to be supportive to the ones that do.

تتذكر ولا لأ
تتذكر نسيمَهُ للحنِ و هو آتٍ
قبل النومِ قبل خَونِ الذاكِرةِ عنهِ
عن النسيمِ التائِهِ الآتِ ليداي
لأكتبُ و بالنعاسِ هائماتٌ لعينان
فصوتِ اللحنِ أعلى من صوتهِ للنومِ
تتذكر يا أنا
لما قلت لو حبيت ما رح اخلي كتاباتي عن اللي أحبه
و أنا لا أحُبُهُ لكن كتاباتي عنهُ كُلُهُ
