KISSES TO THE SEA AND THE HOMES
"To Beirut, from my heart greetings to Beirut
And kisses to the sea and the homes
To a rock that seems as an old sailor's face
She is from the wine of the people's soul
From his essence, she is bread and jasmine
How come that she has the taste of fire and smoke"
Joseph Harb,
Fairuz 1984
