The group, "El Haija Brothers," got their big break by singing the praises of Hezbollah guerilla Hassan Nasrallah in the midst of the war. Their now global hit is titled The Hawk of Lebanon.

The rough translation of the song's lyrics are below:

I hail thee, hawk of Lebanon
I welcome thee, Hassan Nasrallah
Here are your men, Hezbollah
Victory, victory with the help of God.
Nasrallah, this brave person
He responded to the calls to take vengeance
The Arab blood became hotter and hotter
The boldness and the courage that characterizes this battle is an Islamic courage
You can launch as many rockets as you want
But our people will never surrender
History will write your story
And God will always bless you
Your rockets in Israel all generations will talk about
And your Katyushas have scared the Zionists
Nasrallah, raise your voice
Our people are used to welcoming death
We do not want money or treasures or wealth
All we want is to live a free life
Blood only brings blood
And I hope we can destroy your life and make you worry
Zionism and Zionists are the biggest poison in Arab land

As you can see, it's a real pick me up. Should you be inclined to hear The Hawk of Lebanon you can find their selection here.

Rumor has it that Lance Bass is set to sing back up vocals for the group.
