Tawsen sings about life’s highs and lows, focusing on themes of love, loss, and resilience. One standout line, ‘I built all of this with my own two hands,’ highlights his determination. The musician uses vivid scenes, like wandering barefoot and empty pockets, to make the story relatable.
Ya 7asra 3alli kanOh, the nostalgia for what used to be,
Li rojola ki ji nishentrue manhood always comes straight to the point.
Tsed bab it7ello bibanWhen one door closes, many others open,
Ya zina o kobbi kissanoh beautiful girl, pour the glasses.
Ki tzid darja tzado 3adyianAs you step up a level, your enemies multiply.
Jelt m3ak wana 7efyanI wandered with you back when I was barefoot.
Dans ton regard j’vois jalousieIn your eyes, I see nothing but jealousy,
J’suis bien tout seul gher khalloniI’m perfectly fine on my own, just leave me be.
J’ai tiré sans jamais m’arrêterI took my shots without ever stopping,
Hadchi darto yana b’iddiI built all of this with my own two hands.
Et j’m’en rappelle comme siAnd I remember it all, as if,
J’m’en rappelle comme si c’était hierI remember it as if it were just yesterday.
Fderbi y’a rien à fêterIn my neighborhood, there’s nothing to celebrate,
