Lyrics

Arhegh ad ànnàgh imidiwàn
Wi dàr tidawàgh ad dàr djegh isdiwàn
Chorus
Tàrha n-idjodàgh
Tolàh d-eylàl
S-afàl tin-tikked
Ad hak iba e-ihàl
Chorus
Màràw iwityan-nàkk a legh id hid tifàl
Tàrha n-iman-in ibas hid tammàr
Chorus
Iksànaqqàm diha-hid tizzdjàr
Tidit ta-legh ibas e-tiffàr
Chorus

Friends, every day companions
I want to tell you this:
Love these days is like a mirage.
It gets fainter the closer you get.
For ten longs years,
I lost my one true love.
Love no longer crosses my path.
Truth, how I hate you
When you emerge from me.
My truth will no longer be hidden.
