It's not easy to be Lebanese

English Translation of the video:
For every Lebanese guy and girl
Fate chose you
History dares you
You sow but you don't reap
Everyone else is at ease and you're not
You sacrifice but you don't get anything back
You bleed yet never run out of blood
You die and you die again with the same problem
This is the destiny of Lebanon and it's not easy to be Lebanese
It takes an effort beyond human boundaries
You need to be truly Lebanese deep down inside your heart
Even if it takes going up against the wall or the windshield
It needs audacity, partiotism and pride
It's not easy to be Lebanese but Lebanon is a country like no other
You might say that you sacrificed for years and lived there, and wonder where did that get you
You might say that this no country worth trusting
...But again this is your destiny. You're Lebanese and it's not easy at all
Probably it's because Lebanon is big and we're too small
Probably it's because Lebanon is too small and the envious are numerous
Maybe simply it's because Lebanon has a godly side so it's even harder to be truly Lebanese
A Lebanese gives his hand out
He's the only one who builds with his life whilst belittling destruction, not awaiting grace or miracles
With his his/her will and hard work. he/she lit all corners
On paper you have governors yet in reality you govern your lives because they represent the corrupt and the irrational
You're on your own just like your country
You're Lebanese and you only count on God and noone else
Hold your head high and be proud with your above human power and will to face life's ordeals and move on from hurdle to hurdle, always knowing that it's not easy to be Lebanese living in Lebanon

yih!

why is the video no longer available?!

[joefarah2]

It is still available. I certainly didn't remove it. Maybe there was a glitch with you accessing it, that happens with YouTube so try again.

[fredbarber1]

we are a nation infatuated with aesthetics (the video is nicely done) and self glorification when we should be ashamed of how stupid we are!

Another Lebanonese masterpiece by the retarded LBC... A piece of shit dipped in caramel!

Every Lebanese should effectively watch and ponder!

[joefarah2]

Ease up dude! I think that's a very harsh stance. This video is meant to cheer the Lebanese up (not bring them down into further depression) regardless of the problems they suffer (including bigotry, militias, and acts larger than us) some of which you referred to.

[luvthe3jonases]

screw you , Lebanon's the best

@mauriceraffoul i agree with every word.....and ive been there and saw it with my own eyes...i cant believe how conceited and big-headed LBC was for making this mockery of a video...it has got to be a fuckin spoof!

[mauriceraffoul]

lebanon is the last place in the world i would want to business, go to visit, the people are fake and stupid. Some are academically gifted but they are liars and are basically thiefs, look at the last prime minister that was killed, he stole under the syrians so they ended him. This is the country i know, worthless arabs who are only concerned with what type of clothing and car they drive. Fuck lebanon

[samerkrz]

This Video is to motivate people to be Patriots and care more about their country. Still when I read the comments I feel sad to see people fight about something that should make them proud.

When we will stop thinking in a sectarianism (طائفية) way, and start thinking like patriots we will have a country. As long as everyone will keep thinking and acting like everyone else wants a piece of his cake we will never have a country, and we will keep fighting forever for this fake cake. VIVA LEBANON

[Theziz8]

@oldstock1607 And you should tell me what you know of Lebanon or at least what your lying media and naif people has told you 

[Theziz8]

@oldstock1607 Why do you say things about countries or people you don't know? Have you ever met a Lebanese?Have you ever been to Lebanon? And by the way I don't think that "American schools" are better than Lebanese ones , you should try , my friend is from the US and I been there I tried a very good school and the things we studied there were way passed in Lebanon , what you study in the 9th grade is studied in the 6th grade in Lebanon so stop whining.

[gaj1012]

@oldstock1607 haha, again.a bad comeback.i asked you about lebanon not about what you think about me you immature dipshit."If you don't stop crying so hard you're going to raise the sea levels." really, my 5 year old cousin knows better comebacks than this one.next time answer the question. its because of people like you that the world doesn't move forward.. think of what you say before you say it. here's a learnt lesson. now i'm officially out got better shit than answering nerds like you.

[oldstock1607]

@gaj1012 wow. Neologisms just for me? how flattering. If you don't stop crying so hard you're going to raise the sea levels. How about this: I'll take a massive shit in your cunt if you stop crying so fucking much? Good. I just want you to know that it was wrong of you, Bilal, to gang -rape all of those Australian girls with your lebo butt-buddies.

[gaj1012]

@oldstock1607 alienize is a word made just for you.. happy? now go chew on a dick fuckface..

you're being racist and talk of education, you have shown me no facts about lebanon of which you know.. you disgust me.. you're annoying and stupid at the same time.. therefore america counted you as an alien. you're not worth my time.. if you want to comeback at least have good comebacks so i wont get bored with you... but mainly, get off this video unless your comeback is good.. wouf, kids these days.

[oldstock1607]

@gaj1012 Easy there, Bilal. So....make up your mind. do you want me to "get the fuck off this video" or do you want me to "tell [you] about Lebanon?" And I didn't know you were a dying man--I may have had more respect. I'm sorry that you find me "as annoying" as your case of AIDS. Really, Mr. Skaf, if you've been to the university, you should have learned that "alienize" is not an actual word in the English language.

[gaj1012]

@oldstock1607 oh don't worry america has that.. you don't... didn't america alienize you for being this fucking annoying already...

yes you know nothing of lebanon? get the fuck out of this video.. we don't want to hear you here anymore..

tell me about lebanon you bitch, if you're so good at it...

good god you're as annoying as AIDS.. how do you live with yourself..
