Like their parents and ancestors, they just love Beirut.
Unlike many of us, they are gifted with a fabulous voice and magical fingers.
Bambi was deeply moved by this beautiful video, “Li Beirut – Cover by Romy Mounzer“. She is happy to share it with you (thank you Marina)!
From 2:53 to 3:09 minutes into this video, you can hear artist and singer/song-writer (+ mom, we learn from her Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/romy_moun/?hl=en) adding English words to the famous Fairuz, Li Beirut, song: “We stand with you, we pray for you, you will rise once again“. Well said, thank you!
Bravo to both Ms. Romy Mounzer (angelic voice!) and Ms. Romy Sukkarieh (moving piano melody!) for sharing your beautiful talents. Both of you are blessed to have supportive and talented families… Well, Bambi is honoured to call herself a family’s friend :).
At the end of this post, if you wish, you can hear again Mayssa’s own dad honouring Beirut on his piano (Mr. Nagi Sukkarieh). Among the comments, you can read Maysa’s own beautiful words to her beloved “baba” [Maysa, Bambi finally had the chance to discover your talent :)].
Following this post, if you wish, you can re-hear/re-watch, Li-Beirut, a beautiful yet moving artistic video about the August 4th port explosion (shared by Ms. Roula Douglas).
In that earlier post, you can read an English translation of this eternal Lebanese song.
Wow Bambi. This is Romy Mounzer. I was deeply moved by your blog and words regarding me and Maysa’s Interpretation of Li Beirut. Had I known sooner I would have reached out earlier to thank you ? Your kindness and beautiful words truly go a long way. This definitely put a smile on my face:) God bless you ?
Bambi is honoured to post your comment. Thank you Romy Mounzer (+ Maysa) :). Bravo again for the talent and please keep it up!
Love this song although it makes me cry when I hear it??
