This song is dedicated to the memory of Saleh Al-Jafarawi, a 28-year-old Palestinian journalist who was killed on 12 October 2025 by members of an Israel-linked “militia” fighting Hamas in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City. (Two versions of Voice Beyond the Night are linked below.)

May Saleh al-Jafarawi (صالح الجعفراوي) rest in peace and power.

Peace, MAA

(Verse 1)
In the quiet hours before the dawn
You stood your ground, though hope seemed gone
With eyes that held the weight of years
You spoke for those drowned by fear

You walked the roads where sorrow treads
Where stories go unheard, unsaid
You carried truth upon your skin
A battle fought from deep within

(Chorus)
O Saleh, your voice beyond the night
Burns like a candle in the darkest fight
Though they sought to silence what you believed
Your words, your life—are what we will never leave

(Verse 2)
In Gaza’s heart, your footsteps strong
You raised your hand before the wrong
Where pain was sharp, you became the sword
Defending honor, pride restored

You saw the faces in the rubble
Heard their cries amid the trouble
Your heart refused the world’s retreat
You faced the storm with steady feet

(Chorus)
O Saleh, your voice beyond the night
Burns like a candle in the darkest fight
Though they sought to silence what you believed
Your words, your life—are what we will never leave

(Bridge)
They may take the ground beneath our feet
They may try to hush the songs we keep
But memories rise on wings of flame
Your name, our hope will always claim

We will carry forward every dream
Plant your courage beside the stream
For every child who cannot speak
Your legacy will be the strength they seek

(Chorus – Variation)
O Saleh, your voice beyond the night
Burns like a candle in the darkest fight
No bullet, no fear, no tyrant’s lie
Can bury truth—you taught us how to fly

(Outro)
So here we stand, in your light, we rise
Under the same sky, we hear your cries
You are not gone, you live in every fight
Your voice beyond the night
