Emotional: The talented schoolgirl, who fled ISIS in Iraq eight months ago, gave an emotional performance at the Beirut studio in which she sang Frozen's 'Let it Go'

But Mirna has told the heartbreaking story of how she ended up on the show – and how she was forced to leave Iraq for Lebanon eight months ago when her life was in danger.

Mirna said: 'After we got to Lebanon, my dad told me that Daesh [ISIS] wanted to kidnap and kill me. From then I felt very scared at night, and I couldn't sleep alone, or be by myself.'

In a video, the brave singer said: 'The Voice is a chance to sing for the world and to show that Iraq isn't just about war and things like that - there are beautiful sounds too.'

'Everybody knows the difficulties of Iraq, from ISIS and how they slaughter the people and how they take their houses,' her proud father said.

'They threatened us with the kidnapping our the little girl, so we came here. We left everything behind us - even my job with the government,' he added.

The war-ravaged existence Mirna, a Chaldean Christian, has left behind in Baghdad is a far cry from her new reality in Beirut where she took to the stage in a chiffon red dress to perform in front of the Arab world's pop elite.

Before she walked on stage, her father hugged and said, 'Don't be scared.'

On hearing the opening notes, 58-year-old Iraqi judge Kazem El Saher broke into a broad smile - immediately recognising the rendition of his own haunting love song.

On the hit show, it didn’t take Kazem, who is from Mosul, now ISIS' 'capital', in northern Iraq, long to turn his chair to see who was singing so beautifully.

His fellow judges, Lebanese superstar Nancy Ajram and Egyptian actor and singer Tamer Hosny, were also visibly moved, their eyes welling with tears before hitting the button to compete to mentor the young star.

'How do you sing like that,' judge Nancy asked her in disbelief, when Mirna told her she is only 12-years-old.

In an attempt to lure Mirna to her team, Nancy offered her costumes from Frozen, and Tamer offered her a chance to be in his films.

Let It Go: After performing the classic Iraqi love song, Mirna sang the hit 'Let it Go', from Disney's Frozen. The crowd went wild for the young singing sensation

Team Kazem: Despite the other two judges trying to convince her to join their teams, Mirna chose Iraqi superstar Kazem El Saher as her mentor for the next stage of the competition

Support: Mirna's proud mother, Amira, father, Anwar, and brothers cheered the performance backstage

But it was the simple offer of being able to sing whatever she wanted from fellow Iraqi Kazem Saher, known as the 'Caesar of Arabic Singing', that won her heart and she chose to join his team.

Now she will battle it out with other talented children to win the competition.

A Facebook page celebrating Chaldean Christians posted messages of support for their young star.
