Tenere taqqim tossam [French translation]

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

O Tenere,

you jealous desert,

why can't you see

you are a treasure?

I've seen the world,

I love you better.

O Tenere,

you are the treasure

of my soul.

Dagh aytman ghred tendam

S tenere taqqim tossam

(bis)

Aghregh yallah kay s ammaqqar

Ayyetkalan tumast tartay
