Tenere Taqqim Tossam
Tinariwen Lyrics


Le désert est jaloux
Jealous Desert

Tenere ti nin
tenere nekkim
taqqim tafuk tedu
Teyyed fel shinawan ashni
Itissed ehad hi tismesti
Teyyed fel shinawan ashni
Tenere tekkus akan aman nes
Aman iman
Dagh aytman ghred tendam
S tenere taqqim tossam
Aghregh yallah kay s ammaqqar
Ayyetkalan tumast tartay

English:

The desert is mine
Tenere, my homeland
We come to you when the sun goes down
Leaving a trail of blood across the sky
Which the black night wipes out
The desert is hot
And its water hard to find
Water is life and soul
To all my brothers I say
The desert is jealous!

Oh, Tenere!
A jealous desert
Why can't you see
You are a treasure
I've seen the world
I love you better
Oh, Tenere!
You are the treasure
Of my soul

I cry out to God on High
To bring together my people
In unity

We are the Berbers ❤ I’m from Kabylia - Algérie, I’m speaking a different dialect but I understood all the lyrics it’s not so hard as I was thinking, I am so proud of being of yours, we are the native people of these North African Lands, our culture and language will be forever.

قل والله ياخي حالة فرق شاسع بينكم وبين، ساكن الاصليين الوجوه تخبرك انظر لنفسك وانظر لي هؤلاء ما هذا الهراء

I'm so glad I've discovered these guys. They are such amazing musicians and they are so authentic. Like the true dessert people they are, they invite you in. I've been there and can attest to the fact. I will go see them for sure if ever they come to my city. And I will be singing along and dancing the dervish dance. Al'humdillah
