Fayrouz - Arsal Allah

The one and only Fayrouz's voice is a remarkable Christmas companion. She is one of the earliest Arabic singers who perform Christmas hymns. Her "Arsal Allah" is full of spirituality and serenity that everyone needs at Christmas times.

Hiba Tawaji - Kil El Denya 'Aam Tendahlak (God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen)

Tawaji's adaptation of the universal "God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman" is a wonderful one. It depicts the revolutionary Jesus Christ's birth and his resurrection.

The Arabic version carries a very beautiful line "your voice represents gentleness, humbleness, a new revolution, and new resurrection." She refers to the tragic political and social chaos in Lebanon in 2018; as if Lebanon calls for a new savior.

Fayrouz - Kona Nezayen Shagra Saghera

Another Arabic adaptation for "God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman" by the great Fayrouz.
