The Vigil - Birth - Track 11 - Rise (Bonus Track)
by the_vigil

During the war Hadi wrote this piece as a reaction to what he was feeling, then during talks with Sara, they managed to give it a tune.. soon after, ahmad was on the arrangement process.. then it got recorded.. and now its for you to listen… Rise… from beneath the ashes… No words to declare No words to be heard In silence I feel the rage No woes to declare No woes to be heard In resonance I leave this cage Round I see eyes shimmering Like stars in a dark night Round I see deception blazing Like wrongs made right Round I see destruction overwhelming Like erosion all in sight Rise from beneath the ashes Rise from deep down low Stand with honor and status Stand without death row Rise from beneath the ashes Clean the dust on you Clean that pain forever and ever away [Chorus] Oh dear land rise in a posture Defying the fascist notions Rise (Lebanon rise) with awe and honor An example for awakening nations [Chorus] [x2] Credits: Lyrics: Hadi Chatila Composer: Sara Takieddine & Ahmad Hamadani Vocals: Sara Takieddine & Hadi Chatila
