"Banna Strand" (also known as "The Lonely Banna Strand" - "The Ballad of Roger Casement" is a different song) is an Irish rebel song about the failed transport of arms into Ireland for use in the Easter Rising. Authorship of the song is unknown. The final verse was written by Derek Warfield of the Wolfe Tones in 1965 when Roger Casement's remains were finally returned to Ireland.

Banna first achieved popularity in the early 1990s, after recording her own versions of traditional Palestinian children's songs that were on the verge of being forgotten.[5] Many such songs and rhymes sung by Palestinian families again today are said to be thanks to Banna's work in preserving them via her recordings.[5]

Banna composed her own songs and adds melody to Palestinian poetry. Her message was often focused on the suffering of Palestinians, particularly those of the West Bank. Her music is described as "haunting, emotional, at times bordering on kitsch." She describes her music as a means of cultural self-assertion:

The album, dubbed "a musical antiwar message to U.S. President Bush from female singers in Palestine, Iraq, Iran, and Norway,"[5] brings these women together with others from North Korea, Syria, Cuba, and Afghanistan, to sing traditional lullabies from their lands in duet form with English-language performers whose translation allows the songs to reach a Western audience.[8]

The Mirrors of My Soul, which was dedicated to all the Palestinian and Arab political detainees in the Israeli prisons, is a stylistic departure from her previous body of work. Produced in cooperation with a Norwegian quintet, it features "Western pop styling" fused with Middle Eastern modal and vocal structures, and Arabic lyrics.[10] Though the style differs from previous recordings, the subject matter has basically remained constant. The album includes "songs of despair and hope" about the lives of "a struggling people, and even a song about late Palestinian leader and PA president Arafat in a way that is both thoughtful and subtle".[11]

Brief: "Banna Strand" is an Irish rebel song about the failed transport of arms into Ireland for use in the Easter Rising of 1916. The song tells the story of Roger Casement, who was involved in the attempt to land arms for Irish Republicans from the German vessel the Aud. On Good Friday morning, 21 April 1916, Casement and another man, Robert Monteith, landed on Banna Strand in County Kerry. However, the British had been tipped off about the landing, and a British warship intercepted the Aud before it could reach the shore. The Aud was scuttled, and Casement and Monteith were captured. 2351a5e196
