Syriac Orthodox - Arabic Hymns

Although I am not Christian, I found this very beautiful to listen to, it sounds as if from a time in the distant past. Christians in the Arab world are one of the oldest Christian communities in the world.

Chaldean's and Assyrians were the original Iraqis and even orig Syrians in parts of Syria. This is really beautiful, especially the part that goes "wala sadiq" which translates into "and not a friend," an emphasis on the loneliness of Jesus i suppose.
And "Ayoo haliin anta fee" which roughly translates into "and what state you are now in..."
Its really beautiful, like one reminiscing of the pain, the loneliness, and above all the sacrifice.

Like startled giants by Nile's famous flood.
