Kinah L'Roma V'Italia, Victory Song Celebrating the Nazi Defeat, Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic, Morocco? 1945
Rare and interesting victory song published towards the end of the world war, in the area of North Africa, apparently Morocco, by the author Nissim ben Yehudah Dahan(?). The song was written in the meter of the lamentation "Kol B'Ramah Nishmah B'Ylalah Kol Nehi MiTziyon HaMehullallah. It describes the Allies' victory over the Axis powers, the Germans and Fascist Italy.
It is interesting to note that apparently the booklet before us was printed right after the end of the war, when world Jewry had not yet been exposed to the extent of the horrors of the Holocaust. The author is completely unaware of the holocaust of European Jewry, not referring to it, even by inference.
