Nazem El-Ghazali Fog il Nahal

[QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

I just found out that the words Fog El Nakhal came from an Iraqi Jew. from guys named Saleh and Daud Al-Kuwaity. I didn't know that.

[QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

@BayatTurkmen Are you saying Ghazzali was a Turkmen?

[1babylonian]

@Rechavi

well said :)

[rodionmel]

Yesterday I was in Jerusalem, at concert dedicated entirely to Nazem El-Ghazali. Great Israeli musician, many of them Iraqi-born, played and sung his songs. Some people made 200-km ride (and back) just to attend this concert.

[melancholicme]

Can anybody please tell me where i can find the full version of this song by Nazem El Ghazali??????

[JohnJE123]

@melancholicme @melancholicme You can purchase the CD in the USA from BuyArabic web page (Brooklyn-based). Look up "Nazem Al Ghazali." "Fog El Nakhal" ("Fowq El Nakhel" as translitered on the web page) is the second track on "Best of Nazem Al Ghazali, Volume 1." This is a CLASSIC! I own the cassette version.

[khoharo]

[thethunderbolt9]

Music at its Best. No more of this, unfortunately.

[hotayman8]

god bless him and all people in iraq.

[nir766]

dont you have enoght wars ?

[Musemelove]

Those who have an urgent need to spout their venum could do so on a political forum. What a shame to spoil this beautiful song :(

[satoofi93]

Dirty basterd, we're trying to enjoy our music and you're cussing on an entire nation because probably one of your relatives was murdered in Iraq?

[hassanane]

oh dude.. you must be such a badman

lol

what a sad little cunt.. tryna act bad over the internet..

i bet ur like a 14 year old midget who gets knocked out at school..

cunt!

[hadil80]

and I'm sure we made the comments like personal forum :) . The Iraq in the way we see it today was established by Europeans. Iraq we love is just our home... don't think we must over react on this.

[hadil80]

different people different ideas - i like the name Iraq (it's not arabic and it has a meaning and a sound). It is not a big deal anyway we call it Bilad al Rafidayn so... thwe most important is that Nadhem is singing about our beautiful land.

[satoofi93]

I'm sure every Iraqi does not like the fact that Iraq was established by the Europeans......

[hadil80]

100% agree - the baath and that animal saddam brought us these problems. so now we are looking again to be Iraqis - songs like this help the person remember.

[satoofi93]

lol to be honest with you..I don't even like the name "Iraq" and don't feel we should call that ancient holy land by "Iraq"..

It's Mesopotamia, or Nahrain.

[hadil80]

satoofi93, my comment has the same idea as yours but may be my English is not so good. I meant that the Jewish artists sang these songs because they were Iraqis first. the ethnic and religious side wasn't the main. Anyway I think we put too many comments. At the end here we must comment the songs. What was characteristic for Iraqis was the complete ignorance about the ethnic and religion but now we lost this blessing and we became too much arabs, too much muslims and we forgot being Iraqis.

[satoofi93]

Maybe it's because the leader of ba'ath was our preisdent and..saudis and other islamists are killing Iraq.

[hadil80]

it's true that they shaped the music as iraqi artists - it has nothing to do with their religious or ethnic backgrounds. the talent and the rich iraqi folk and history gave the chance to create great songs. By the way I said that we are proud of the iraqi Jews but it doesn't mean that we don't have what to be proud of from other ethnic and religious groups. At the end we are all Iraqis and this is the most important. I see that Nadhem's and Salima's have comments on many things but the music.

[satoofi93]

Did the Jews originally sing this song?..no.

I love Jews more than Arabs, I'm just telling a fact.

[hadil80]

Salima Murad, The Kwayti brothers and many other Iraqi artists (musicians, singers, painters, writers) are Jews and the true Iraqis are proud of that because it shows our identity. If you look at our origins you'll see that we gave arabs and muslims more than they could ever offer us and what they did is to re-pay us with murderers.enjoy the music and leave the politics. I don't think the islam will have a nice look about the songs no matter if they were sang by muslim, christian or jew. :)

[hadil80]

The song is beautiful and one of the Iraqi symbols. It's shameful for an Iraqi to say that we don't love Jews. I don't care about other nations and especially about what arab think. Don't get me wrong - I am an arab and muslim but this has nothing to do with me as a person. The most important is to be a human and after this to be an Iraqi (or other nationality) and the religion is the last things because it's a personal question.

[mohammadoz]

he is really greaaaaaaaaaaaat

[Zaqnaboot]

Iraqis are singing ta7t al-nakhil nowaday.

Ya foog al-nakhat ya taramash!!

Foog Al-Baghal.

[Zaqnaboot]

Al-Khazali was alright. But he become zaqnaboot on all Iraqis because of the misery arab Iraqis in"

We hear the word Zaqnaboot in Iraq more than Al-Khazali

As Zaqnaboot as I'm, I know for sure Al-Khzali bones are turning around in his grave because of all the bombs he hears"

[gypsymagicdancer]

Saadoun Al Bayati has a great version...

a couple of decades old, but he's still out there...and I just love this song....working on it....bless all the singers in the world.

[BahebakYaLoubnan]

not that it matters at all, but he actually was shiite

[BahebakYaLoubnan]

but his wife was a jewish iraqi who never left Iraq (also a famous arabic singer, Salima Pasha). maybe thats where the confusion started

[classyandsassy]

omg how childish !! who f***ing cares if he was Jewish :S he is singing Arabic and he is Arab. we're talking about a cultural thing not a religious thing

[nir766]

i  agree!!!

[roey232]

btw he is a jewish

[satoofi93]

His wife was Jewish..he's Muslim.

[iraq4iraqiz]

no brother you are wrong........his wife was a Christian her name is Salema Basha Murad she was older than him she was rich and famous...she was a singer too

[AlanAlan2001]

This voice is for eternity.

[rasha88]

[sholoborx]

My dear  Rami Dont be jelous I will give you your first job shine my shoes for a quarter

[kurdes2]

Moms favourite song and mine <3

[ddorothy]

שיר מדהים. זכר ליהדות עירק המפוארת שהולכת ונעלמת מהעולם....

[bullthetakers]

Makore

Shkalem DD

[nir766]

לא הולכת ולא נעלמת משום עולם ,אתה עד לאחד מדרכי תיעודה .וגם אם בשרם יעלם מן העולם כבדרך כל דור -לא תעלם מורשתם ותרבותם . מה מוכן א ת ה להוסיף ??

[ddorothy]

אני מדור ההמשך ועושה הכל במרץ כדי לחקור את שורשיי ולהנציח אותם. האימרה לא נאמרה משום הודאה או קבלה של ה"היעלמות", כי אם נאמרה בצער על דור שהולך ונעלם לנו.

בשום אופן היא לא תישכח.

[tartwix]

this is a great song..elham madfa3ee did a good job recreating it...good song thanks for posting man..nothing like arab art

[nir766]

אני בן ליהדות עירק המפוארת ובין ביאליק לשלום עליכם התמזל מזלי ובאופן טיבעי ינקתי מתרבות עירק הנאצלת והיו שירים אילו כ"חלב אם " " ותרבות אב" אליה אני מייחל ומתגעגע מי יתן ותרבותינו תינק מהעומק התרבותי והרמה הנאצלת מהשירה ששר נזם אל ראזאלי . ya sallaaam al hawwa!!!

[Rami2k9]

stffu you fucking jew why are you listening to iraqi music we iraqis hate you we arabs and muslims all hate you we fought wars against each other and you stole palestine and now you are listening to our music nazem al ghazali is not a jew

Fuck You You Little Mother Fucker!

לך תזדיין יבן אלף שרמוטות!

[nir766]

i m a jewish that is corect .

my perents have born in bagdad -iraiq.

nazzem was not a jew but his wife was .[salima murad] and also salekh and daud li quety wich have shaped your miusic

whether you like it or not we would alweys love nothem as like as he loved us .

[satoofi93]

Whether they were Iraqi Jewish, they are still Iraqi first..so don't be saying "they shaped your music" as if Israel shaped our music..

Most of the songs that Iraqi Jews sing for Muslim and Christian Iraqis are originally Iraqi herritage sung by old Iraqis long time ago..nothing to do with Jews with all respect.

[malgomusic]

just so you'll know, he was married to an iraqi jewish singer.

[freeiraq1987]

you should say death to the zioni

[supermanpaki]

Israel is zionist.

[pazgriega]

Sublime!!!

[KudoAzad]

what's this fight is about? this song is Nazim Ghazali's song, a very famous Iraqi singer. I don't who wrote it? but it does not matter, lets just enjoy it. viva iraq.

This song reminds me my chilhood. It is a great Irqi song in Israel. It is a MUST song in Israeli Irqi wedding. I have a feeling that every iraqi(among approximatelly 200,000) in Israel knows to sing it...

[caisys2]

this is song is one of the greatest arabic songs of all time and Nazem's version is the best compared to sabah fakhry and ilham madfaay

[sleeplessintokyo]

not one.. but the best.(PERIOD)!

[sehayek1]

FYI this song was written by the brothers Selah & Dahod El Kueti.

Jewish Musician Born in Kuwait (1908 & 1910) who leaved in Basra & Bagdad till 1950.

In 1950 immigrated to the stat of Israel.

[Achilleeeez]

YEAH RIGHT, go and fuck yourself pig

[CrimsonKing101]

I wouldn't call you a pig, but maybe provide some evidence? This song has been iraqi for decade's, and usch a claim isn't discarded with simple FYI posts that a two jewish arabs in a different country made it and left.

[sehayek1]

I have personally talked to the daughter of one of the brothers who wrote the song.

[justiraqi]

Oooh, tell me about it? What happened at the end, you got married :D That's really cool to know, and I LOVE the words to this song, theyre magical!
