I thought Fairouz was Orthodox; the priest and whole setting look Maronite to me. But I was once violently yanked aside at a party by a Lebanese friend of mine and strictly forbidden from ever asking any Lebanese person’s religious affiliation (I guess I had just done so), so let’s just enjoy this rare clip and Fairouz’ beautiful voice. Does anyone know what, if any, hymn this corresponds to in the Greek Church? Or even the lyrics?

Me, I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but when I say that in English some five people in the world today understand what I'm talking about, so I use "Greek" for shorthand). I'm from New York. I live all over the place these days. The rest should become obvious from the blog.
