Greetings
gracious viewers, and
welcome to Enlightening
Entertainment.
In today’s program,
we would like to
introduce to you one of
the best music ensembles
in Palestine, Yalalan Group
for Music & Singing.
This group has endeavored
to preserve Palestinian
traditional music and
has taken on the mission
of spreading peace and
harmony to the world.
Yalalan Group was formed
by a number of talented
Palestinian young people
in 2005.
They chose Yalalan
as the name of the group
because of its significance
in Arab music.
Derived from
the Moroccan tradition,
Yalalan means
“to keep the beat.”
It also carries
the same meaning as
the words “Aman” (trust),
and “Ya lallali”
(Oh my night)
in classical Arab song.
Yalalan made its debut
at the Ramallah
Cultural Palace and
gained success right away.
Their repertoire covers
a wide range of choices,
from traditional
to contemporary,
which include
Palestinian folk songs,
Arab traditional music,
and songs from
modern artists of Egypt,
Lebanon, and Syria.
Here is my voice,
from the brown land,
it's coming… coming…
coming
My voice from
the mountain of spirits
is coming…
from my field…
from my sun,
from my field…
from my sun
from my people’s pain
it's coming…
My voice is no groan
anymore…
my heart has only longing…
My voice is no groan
anymore…
my heart has only longing…
Over the past years,
Yalalan has established
a reputation for its
excellent performances.
In July 2009,
they were invited to
perform in the Palestine
International Festival,
the largest and most
prominent cultural event
in Palestine.
During this festival, both
local and international
acclaimed artists
gave performances
to foster unity
among Palestinians.
The show was staged
in different cities, including
Ramallah, Bethlehem,
Jerusalem, and Nablus.
Now, let’s join the audience
at Dar Annadwa,
the International Center
of Bethlehem, and enjoy
Yalalan’s beautiful concert.
We welcome you again
to the Al-Dar theater
and conference hall,
in the international
Dar Annadwa,
good evening everyone.
By the activities of
the International
Palestine Festival,
the First Palestinian festival,
which has been
organized this year,
under the title of
Al-Quds (Jerusalem),
capital of the Arab culture.
A great musical
artistic event including
Yalalan Group, they will
enlighten us with their
performance tonight.
A group of men and women
have taken seriously the
responsibility of circulating
the Palestinian and
Arab musical heritage.
Their troupe was founded
in 2005, and tonight
they will enlighten us.
Let us welcome
Yalalan Group.
Egypt, the wondrous land,
your people are good
Egypt, the wondrous land,

Take care of

you don't have the right
to blame me.

After the concert
held at the Palestine
International Festival,
we had the honor
to interview
Ms. Sabreen Daibis,
who is one of the singers
in Yalalan Group.
She kindly introduced
her group to us.
My name is Sabreen Daibes,
and I am from a village
near Jenin called,
Al-Zababdeh.
But I’m living in Ramallah
[since] 10 years ago.
I’m here today because
we are participating
in the Palestinian
International Festival
this year
in Bethlehem today.
My group is called Yalalan.
It’s a music band.
We are twelve
in the group.
And we all present
Palestinian music
and singing.
I’m a singer
inside this band.
And we have been working
on our participations
since five years.
We are all from Palestine
from different areas and
villages from Palestine.
And today we are here
in Bethlehem
to present our show.
And it was a very nice
experience today.
We’ll enjoy more music
from Yalalan Group
when we return.
Please stay tuned
to Supreme Master
Television.
Welcome back to
Enlightening Entertainment
on Supreme Master
Television.
Yalalan Group consists
of twelve members,
including singers and
instrumental musicians.
They use
Western instruments
such as the violin and
double bass, as well as
Palestinian traditional
instruments such as the oud.
The oud,
which is a pear-shaped
string instrument,
is considered the ancient
predecessor of the lute.
Ms. Daibis told us more
about their music.
The most important
characteristics of our music
is that we combine
the music with the singing
in a very dependable way.
You depend on the music
to sing.
We combine them together,
we don’t have
a single music on its own.
We have the music, and
we have also the singing
inside the same music.
We usually
start with the music
and then the singing
comes after this.
And this is like
the traditional technique
or the traditional way
you might recognize when
you listen to our music.
The music
that we sing in the band
is a traditional music
and it is from our culture.
The talented young people
in Yalalan Group
play music
with their enthusiasm,
and are widely embraced
by the audience.
Actually every time
we have a different reason
of why we do our
exhibitions or our shows.
This year we were
coming to the Palestinian
International Festival.
Next month we can
go to Gaza for example,
to present for people there
to entertain them
sometimes to make them
feel the music, and we
also go for other reasons
like the Palestinian festivals.
With noble and high ideals,
Yalalan Group also
uses music as a tool
to spread the message of
peace to the whole world.
Music is really
a very powerful technique.
They say music is
the language of the world.
We are exposing
more internationally
through music,
in a positive way,
that we talk about peace.
So we use music as
a very powerful method,
to talk to the world.
We use ourselves
as musicians to sing
and to play music
to tell the world
that we are Palestinians
who are asking for
our freedom and
our democracy.
Ms. Daibis tells us
how to find out more
about Yalalan Group.
We have a group
on Facebook which is
called the Yalalan Group,
Y-a-l-a-l-a-n Group.
You can go join
and see our shows there.
And you can also join,
if you like the music
and you can sing here,
anytime you join this group.
The music
of Yalalan Group delivers
a sense of humankind’s
most timeless dreams
and deepest longings.
Now, let’s listen to
another song performed
by Yalalan Group
in the Palestine
International Festival.
This song reflects
a lover’s yearning heart.
Do you think
I will stop loving you?
Do you think
I will be happy without you?
Do you think
I will stop loving you?
Do you think
I will be happy without you?
I beseech you…
may God bless you…
you make me
worry about you
I beseech you…
may God bless you…
you make me
worry about you
If you come to ask about me,
I'm as I used to be.
I can't forget you…
and can't afford losing you
and will never stop loving you
As you like, as you wish…
I'm awake with you,
as you like, as you wish.
I'm awake with you.
I'm not afraid of
sinking in your love,
and my heart
never enjoys happiness
except when I’m with you.
I'm not afraid of
sinking in your love,

If all lovers hope to be

my hope is
what you wish for.

closer to each other,
my hope is
what you wish for.
If you come to ask about me,

and will never stop loving you!
I became a hopeful one
and said,
Oh I hope this and that.
And you being away from me
has made me look for you.
I became a hopeful one
and said,
Oh I hope this and that.
And you being away from me
has made me look for you.
All that I want
is to get enlightened,
and not to go alone.
