Ya Rayah [English translation]

Ya rayah win msafar trouh taaya wa twali

Chhal nadmou laabad el ghaflin qablak ou qabli (bis)

Chhal cheft al bouldan laamrine wa lber al khali

Chhal dhiyaat wqat chhal tzid mazal ou t'khali

Ya lghayeb fi bled ennas chhal taaya ma tadjri

Tzid waad el qoudra wala zmane wenta ma tedri

Aalach qalbek hzine waalach hakdha ki zawali

Matdoum achadda wila tzid taalem ou tabni

maydoumou layyam walay doum seghrek ou seghri

Ya hlilou meskine li ghab saadou ki zahri

Ya msafer naatik oussaayti addiha el bakri

Chouf ma yeslah bik qbal ma tbia ou ma techri

Ya nnayem djani khabrek ma sralek ma srali

Hakdha rad el qalb bel djbine sabhane el aali
