Al-Mirr
Al-Mirr, also named Mahmudiyeh ("the property of Mahmud"), was a Palestinian Arab village in the Jaffa Subdistrict, which was depopulated during the 1947–1948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine on February 1, 1948.
Location
The village was located 16.5 kilometers (10.3 mi) northeast of Jaffa, on the southern bank of the al-'Awja river. A short, secondary track linked it to the railway line running between Ras al-Ayn and Petah Tikva.
History
A mill and dam built at this site in late Roman/early Byzantine period were repaired in Crusader times and some of the remains of both can still be seen.
Excavations of the mill have recovered several 14th-century coins, which indicate that it was in use in the Mamluk period.
Ottoman era
The modern village was founded during the reign of the Mahmud II (1808–39), the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, and was also known as "Al Mahmudiyya".
In the late 19th century, al-Mirr was described as "a small mud village, with mill close to the river."

El Muro
by: Enrique IglesiasQuisiera acercarme a ti
Y no me atrevo
Y se que tu lo deseas
Igual o mas
Quisiera oirte decir
estoy temblando
Y yo tampien tengo frio
Y no vendras
Siguen pasando los dias
Y tu en silencio preguntas
Que nos paso
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Hay un muro en la obscuridad
Caricias rotas
Buscando volver
Y un amor que muere
Y no hay nada que hacer
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Dos heridas en la soledad
Dos luces blancas
Que el tiempo apago
Y un amor que muere
Lo queramos o no
Quisiera besar de nuevo
Tus manos largas
Tambien ellas lo quisieran
Y yo lo se
Quisiera romper el nudo
De tus secretos
Y abrirte mi alma entera
Ayudame
Sigues mirando en silencio
Y tu tampoco te explicas
Que nos fallo
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Hay un muro en la obscuridad
Caricias rotas
Buscando volver
Y un amor que muere
Y no hay nada que hacer
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Dos heridas en la soledad
Dos luces blancas
Que el tiempo apago
Y un amor que muere
Lo queramos o no
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Hay un muro en la obscuridad
Caricias rotas
Buscando volver
Y un amor que muere
Y no hay nada que hacer
Hay un muro entre tu y yo
Dos heridas en la soledad
Dos luces blancas
Que el tiempo apago
Y un amor que muere
