lyrics

Tahnafet
Tahnafet an tenere targhat tozar
Tenere targhat tozar aratanet ande dǝlan
Iyad amoun felas nassan, tanched-assan
Tanched-assan ya Massinagh dihad ǝllan
Ayitamanin offa ad nassan s-alhaq annet
Alhaq annet tenere tad toumast ayiwar

Tahnafet (Cries of affliction)
The groanings of the desert in turmoil, in pain
The desert in turmoil in pain, its children, where are they?
We know that some have died because of this, forgive them
Forgive them Oh God wherever they may be
Brothers and sisters, it’s better if we know its rights
The rights of the desert, it’s its own people that must give it
