It is the newest single from the one of a kind Shabaan Abd El-Raheem , the world famous for his anti-Israel songs like the legendary "I hate Israel and love Amr Moses " who some wise people said that this song was the reason behind transferring Moses to the Arab League "wa haaaaha like Shabola's end"
The new single is called "Two Soldiers" and it is about the recent war in the Middle East
As usual the Israeli the Embassy objected , well most of Shabaan anti-Israeli songs are objected by the Israeli Embassy but this time they objected too much and this goes to the strong lyrics of Islam Khalil where he attacks Olmert so so so so much
The Secret of Abd El-Raheem ,of his success is his lyricist Islam Khalil , the simple first grade teacher in Cairo , in his simple words , this man didn't left a single event locally or internationally without writing lyrics about it , you name it ,from the first intifada to the Iraq invasion to the Cartoon crisis to drugs and smoking even Michael Jackson and Bill Gates were not left alone
Khalil uses this very easy vocabulary , even the illiterates can understand , in fact Shabaan Abd El-Raheem is one of them
I can consider Khalil and Abd El-Raheem the new version of Ahmed Fouad Najm and Shekih Emam, I know many of my Egyptian readers and visitors would n't approve on this comparison but it is true in fact Khalil and Abd El-Raheem got something in their favour in my point of view which makes them more special is that they are neutral , they aren't members to a specific party or specific political side like Najm and Emam who were communists , even after Emam's death ,Najm is still communist. Shabola can be considered a supporter to Hosni Mubarak but only for that reason in which he stated from few months on Dream TV
I support Hosni Mubarak ,I opened my eyes to find him the president ,I don't know anyone else
I believe this statement is not in the sake of Mubarak
anyway enough of the chitchat
as part of this blog duty to show the other side of the world a.k.a Arab world
I share with you the song with very weak translation as it is based upon 100% Egyptian accent
" Why ? Why ?
How many times I warned from all Israel
Did you think that I were kidding ??
Here it is ,its real face appeared
Why ? Why ?
Because of only two solider ,they are making great panic
Now they forgot the massacre and millions of captured
I am sad for Lebanon and the people that were hit
I also sad for Palestine
Where is the Voice of the Arabs ?
Why? Why?
How many house had been destroyed by Israel and its hell ?
America support it and it doesn't care for anyone
They want a media that covers their big scandals
They hit El-Manara channels and they are coming after "Al-jazeera" *
They said that there are chemical weapons in Iraq ,all said "Amen"
And so the disasters become so many
till when I will try to make you understand !!
Why ? Why? Why?
We became like peanuts ,everyone eats us for awhile **
Syria ,Lebanon and Gaza and the next is coming
They are gathered on us and we are just watching silently
Why ? Why ? Why?
If anyone resists ,we must thank him for destroying the Zionism better than blaming him ***
Why ? Why ?Why?
From many years they were bluffing and one hit in Haifa made them cry
Why ? Why ?
Sharon and we were glad to get rid of him, we hoped to find a solution
But it turned out that who came after is more dirtier and lower than him
Why ? Why ? Why?
O' Arabs stop quarrelling and bitting in each other
If in our insult you shut up , then when you will answer back ?
Why ? Why?
O ' uncle Arab wake up , O' uncle Arab wake up
O' uncle Arab wake up, O' uncle Arab wake up
you are letting me talk and the conditions are getting worse
Why ? Why ?
How many times I warn ?
How may times I warn?
from all Israel
OK that's it I am getting bored " ****
Here is a link for it , you can hear it or download it Check it in my box
Sorry again for the bad translation , but give me break here because I am not translating a Nazar Kabani's "Cana" poem ,it is a song for Shabola after all
now for more explanation to the * and her sisters
* "They want the media to cover their scandal ,and so they hit "El-Manara" channel and they are going after "Aljazeera" , as you all know all the Arabs believe that the western media is biased to the Israeli side since very long time and this is obvious in the first part , the second part is concerning targeting "El-Manar" TV channel , the official channel of Hezbollah , as you use Islam Khalil used "El-Manara" instead of "El-Manar" , I don't know if it is in purpose because of the rhythm "They hit El-Manana and they are going after Al-Jazeera " or it is common mistake of the Egyptian people especially in the low social class to confess between "El-Manar" channel and "El-Manana" channel , already there is "El-Manana" TV channel on the Nile Sat , an Egyptian governmental channel for the scientific research , yes I know it seems ridiculous and impossible for a country that doesn't give the scientific research its right to make a TV channel for it , well what can I say our government is good in wasting money
**"We became like Peanuts ,everyone eats us for a while " in other more realistic words , this is a metaphor for weakness in the world as an Arab nation , we are more like a football in the world "another better metaphor"
*** "If anyone resists ,we must thank him for destroying the Zionism better than blaming him" I guess these words are hinting to the Egyptian-Saudi-Jordan and Kuwaiti coalition against Hezbollah a.k.a the Square of evil like Lebanese New TV's description.
**** This is Sharla's official ending of any song , the guy doesn't know any thing in music , that he uses the same melody for every song so no would accuse him for steal his melodies, this time he innovated and said that he was getting bored to express how angry and sick he is from the war !!
