Amid cries for Mubarak's immediate departure, demonstators -led by a guitarist off camera- break into song during the "Day of Departure".

Pro-democracy advocate Ramy Raoof just posted a Youtube clip showing a sing along from Friday night, where spirits seem high and protesters sing that "the television lies, the truth is here".

6. Underneath the video on youtube

it says: "We all, one hand, ask one thing: leave, leave."

8. A comment gives this rough translation:
"Let's make Mubarak hear our voices. We all, one hand, requested one thing, leave leave leave ... Down Down Hosni Mubarak, Down Down Hosni Mubarak ... The people want to dismantle the regime .... He is to go, we are not going ... He is to go, we won't leave ... We all, one hand, ask one thing, leave leave."

4. These people must be dead tired. Can you imagine living on the edge
for 10 straight days with little food and sleep? This approaches combat conditions. Fucking Mubarak.
