a Christmas Song from the Holy Land

[stompdown299]

jesus was born in palestine how could u say u didnt know there was arab christians

[1992MrSingle]

She has face+voice very beautiful

[Etuin]

1:02 KABOOOM!

[FORRESTJASPER]

Just out of curiosity: When a Christian Arab refers to Jesus & Israel in the Bible do they say in Arabic 'Jesus In Israel or Jesus In Palestine'? If the Bible never mentions Palestine and even the holy qur'an never mentions palestine or even Al Quds [Jerusalem]. Jesus is also referenced in many books as "Jesus, son of Mary, KING of Israel". How is that handled in Arabic by a Christian, once again, what is said in Arabic?

Thanks!

[Andydag904]

@FORRESTJASPER Philistine is Palestine in Arabic, which is mentioned in the Bible

[lanatur]

does anybody have the Arabic lyrics to this song? I want to learn it :)

@LearnArabicwithMaha ciao Maha , ho una questione sono un austriaco libanese e voglio sapere si tu posse fare qualche corse in arabo paralato come dialecto levantino ;D l´arabo fusha et molto bene ma per la communicazione orale con la famigla c´é uno po complicato :S ma il levantino é piú utile ;D allora c´é possibili de fare de corse con sentenci utilisati?

[flyingbird0011]

But still we dont know if the arabic version is also about the "denneboom"

[CJones990]

@NinaActually It says "Catherine Haddad sings the Christmas Tree carol."

[X9oO9i]

@NinaActually No, that's the translation of (Catherina Haddad dedicating this special Arabic-Syriac Christmas Song) :)

[sousouDZ1]

@NinaActually the name of the song is "شجرة الميلاد "  , it means christmas tree

[Jenshenanigan]

Hi Maha! I'm Muslim, but I think we can all appreciate the prophet Isa! Thank you for sharing the beautiful song and your cousin's performance. In America, this is sung to the song "Oh Christmas Tree". Hearing it still makes me cry because my baba loved it, and he passed away.

Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Buon Natale wa Eid Meelaad Said! May Allah bless you and your family now and always!

[WLOoDE]

وااااو صوتها مره جميل

في البدايه عربي ثم عبري 

[Jenshenanigan]

I'm Muslim but can appreciate the spirit of prophet Isa. His birth was definitely important and something to celebrate. Thank you for sharing this beautiful song and performance from your cousin, Maha! Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Buon Natale, Eid Meelaad Said, from Texas. May Allah bless you and your loved ones!

Merry Christmas from Canada

[LanguageNerd09]

Beautiful ^_^!  Shukran for the video! And Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year Maha (and all viewers) from the United Kingdom :) x

[flyingbird0011]

In Germany there is a song, named: "Oh Tannenbaum" (= oh "firtree") and its the same melodie as the first part of the song youre cousin is singing. Thats very funny :) In Germany the song reminds us of the eternity of Christ and his Love which is symbolized in the Firtree. Because the firtree always stays green in in summer, but also in Winter.

What is the arab song about? Is it the same meaning? That would be cool :D

But anyway, it sounds beautiful and I wish you merry christmas :D

[ProblemSolvingIce]

Wonderful job! You have a beautiful voice, and you're gorgeous to boot! Merry Christmas everyone, and Happy Holidays

[manticorex5452452]

Merry christmas to my brothers and sisters arab christians and in particular the fellow compatriot of the messiah , the palestinians. I hope that 2012 will be the year of the 'awda and the indepencance !

ps: The song is in arabic. You write syriac (does it mean that was translated from syrianc ?)

[MrSobeq]

@emylie6 if i'm not wrong this song is about the christmas tree and how beautiful it is .
