Issa Boulos wrote ʿal-Safiḥ (Mountainside) in 1993 as a colloquial adaptation of a poem by Mahmoud Darwish. The song is in remembrance of all those who sacrificed their lives for Palestine, reminding us that those who left us are not numbers; they had stories, families, and futures ahead of them, and were taken from us too soon.
