Some Lebanese Zajal

I am a very big fan of the lebanese zajal, I will try from time to time to put some nice zajal songs on my web site for Mousa Zgheab. By the way Mousa Zgheab (Abou Rabeh) had visited my parents in Kab Elias on September 28 2007, which is a great thing. Thank you Abou Rabeh for visitng my parents, they were happy to see you and I am happy and honored to see you in our house.
