Marcel Khalifa - I Chose You My Countryمارسل خليفة - اخترتك يا وطني

Marcel Khalifa is a Lebanese musician who often has political songs about Palestine and what not. Many of his songs are standard Arabic and adapted from poems by authors such as Mahmood Darwish.



Marcel Khalifa - I Chose You My Country

Indeed I chose you my country
Out of love and obedience
Indeed I chose you my country
Secretly and publicly

Indeed I chose you my country
So let time deny me/my existence
It wouldn't matter for me, as long as remember me
My splendid country my country

My heart will be forever green
even if grief appeared in my eye
The revolution will always be in my heart
Even if my pages became dark

I came in the time of the ebb
I came in the glory of fatigue
A spray of violence and anger
Anger, anger, anger

مارسل خليفة - اخترتك يا وطني

إنــي اخــتـرتــك يــاوطـني
حــــباً وطـــــواعـــية
إنــي اخـــتـرتـك يــاوطــني
سرا وعـــلانـــيــة

إنـي اخـــتـرتـك ياوطني
فليتنكر لي زمني
مــادمـت ستذكـرنـي
يـاوطـني الــرائـع يــاوطـني

دائــم الخـضرة يــاقـلبي
وإن بــان بــعـيـني الأسى
دائــم الــثورة يــاقــلــبي
وإن صــارت صفـحاتي مسا

جــئـت فـي زمـــن الجــــزر
جــئـت فــي عــز الــتــعب
رشـــاش عـــنــف وغــضـب
وغــضـب وغــضب وغــتضب
