Natacha Atlas - Makaan and Batkalim (Basha Beats' Rise To Freedom Remix)

This is a remix of material from “Mounqaliba”. We were inspired to do this by the news from Tahrir
Square.
Here's a translation :

Natacha :

Let us stand together and awaken ,
Let us question, learn and study;
Listen, understand and think.
Let us understand,
Permit us to know-
Permit us to know freedom.

Let us know there is a land
where words are the purveyors of truth,
heads are held high,
And human will is regarded above all.

Where the world is not split into a thousand fragments,
Under siege, forgotten, or lost -
Let us perceive of it,
Let us know that place.
Let us know our land,
where words are the purveyors of truth.
