Taraf Syriana - Wa Habibi

Taraf Syriana - Wa Habibi Good Friday, the Friday before Easter, is the day on which Christians annually observe the commemoration of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. From the early days of Christianity, Good Friday was observed as a day of sorrow, penance, and fasting. The hymn, Wa Habibi was composed by the Rahbani Brothers in 1962. It expresses Mary's sadness at the moment of Jesus' crucifixion and passion on the cross.
