Ay afrukh

Lyrics/music: Salim Souhali

Ay Afrukh


ay afrukh i3alen d'ug jenna

ad'uma roH sal f yemma

ad'uma iness memmim yella


yuzzel u maTTa fi maggan inugh

amk mmekTigh TamurT inugh

ad'uma iness memmim yella


ay ayfrukh melmi ad welligh?

ghri la3wam u netch trajigh

ad'a zragh TafsuT d'i TmurT inugh.


O Bird

O bird, flying in the sky

Please give my love to my mum

Tell her your son is ok

Tears flood my cheeks

Whenever I think of HOME

Tell her your son is ok

O bird, when will I return HOME?

It has been long years of waiting

To see spring in my homeland
