“Allahu Akbar… I will ritually purify myself with my blood” – song “of value” in PA quiz

Official Palestinian Authority TV  |

Official PA TV narrator: “Because songs are a basic part of our culture and they express our national identity… and because these songs are present in our consciousness and still fascinate us with values and meanings… It’s here: ‘The Tune of the Homeland.’”

Lyrics: “O the bullets of the revolution, call out!…

And to the Seventh Heaven, call out:
Allahu Akbar (i.e., “Allah is greatest”), Allahu Akbar
Hurry to the revolution, hurry” …

Official PA TV narrator: “Who is the composer of the song O the bullets of the revolution, call out!
Lyrics: I will ritually purify myself with my blood,
and pray on the wooden beam of my rifle…
And my beads is the bullets – the bullets are my prayer beads”
