Lyrics
(Prelude: Acoustic mandole and guitar intro, traditional Chaabi rhythm)
Asefru amezwaru (Verse 1)
A yemma, a yemma, ɣef lḥala n tmurt-iw
Di tlemmast n taddart, yekker lhem di wul-iw
Irgazen di tejmaɛt, llan d lqima d wawal
Ass-a nwala lmuḥal, yettnadi ɣef ccwal
Ibbac n taddart fɣen-d s abrid am dderz
Yal yiwen yeṭṭef amkan, yugi ad iḥrez
Tuzzma (Chorus)
Ay ibbac n taddart, ay ibbac n taddart!
Zik lḥerma tella, tura tfukk lqima
Ay ibbac n taddart, d acu i d-yegran di lweqt?
Tebwiḍ sser n tudder, teǧǧam-d rrehba
Awi-d afus-ik a gma, nbedd ɣef lḥeqq n tmurt!
Asefru wis sin (Verse 2)
Amek ara nkemmel, ma yella ccwal yezga?
Ibbac n taddart zzin-d, yal lqern s tuffra
Taqbaylit tennuɣna, tebda tettru s imeṭṭawen
Imeɣrasen ɣlin, ɣef isem-is d yidammen
Ula d tamurt n Leqbayel, tebɣa ad tbeddel udem
Ma yella ibbac n taddart llan d azaglu f yixef!
Tuzzma (Chorus)
Ay ibbac n taddart, ay ibbac n taddart!
Zik lḥerma tella, tura tfukk lqima
Ay ibbac n taddart, d acu i d-yegran di lweqt?
Tebwiḍ sser n tudder, teǧǧam-d rrehba
Awi-d afus-ik a gma, nbedd ɣef lḥeqq n tmurt!
Asefru wis tlata (Verse 3)
Nek yecna wul-iw, acku zriɣ d acu i d-yeḍran
Ibbac weznen, seḥran wid i d-yewwten s waman
Ur neqbilel ad nḥader, lbaṭel ɣef idurar
Ad nbedd s lqima, ad nḥareb ɣef ddin d lɛar
S wawal lḥeqq ad nyali, am tziri di tmeddit
Ibbac n taddart ad kfun, ad tuɣal-d talwit!
(Outro: Fast-paced traditional drumming (derbouka) and a soaring mandole solo fading out)
