Allah
For the love of a man
She left the Oued in autumn
She was a bit crazy
She didn't believe in God nor anyone else
They were prepared all summer
They travelled a lot all summer
She was there standing
Under the blurry gaze of her man
And in her pink dress
She put on some stuff that were out of place
Everyone is sleeping and why, why not her?
Everyone is sleeping and why, why not her?
Oh Allah
What's the use of you having a name
Why this fire, this thunder
In the name of what are you waging war
But if that's what you want
Everyone will close their eyes
And the truck explodes
She gave her life for the cause
Death is on the sand
Do you feel mutilated in your soul?
Everyone is sleeping and why, why not her?
Everyone is sleeping and why, why not her?
Oh Allah
What's the use of you having a name
Why the fire, the misery
If I were you, I wouldn't be proud
But if that's what you want
Everyone will close their eyes
Oh Allah
What's the use of you having a name
If you have three wishes to make
Choose them well among your equals
But if that's what you want
Everyone will close their eyes
What's the use of you having a name
Why this fire, this thunder
In the name of what are you waging war
What's the use of you having a name
It's to make the desert dirty
With the dripping blood for Allah
Why the fire and the misery
Pray for the end of the war
Relieve them from the evil
Allah
Why the fire, the thunder
But it's you who we're serving
We're fighting in your name
Allah
What's the use of you having a name
Why the fire, the misery
If I were you, I wouldn't be proud
But it's you who we're serving
Relieve them from the evil
Allah
What's the use of you having a name
If you have three wishes to make
Choose them well among your equals
And it's your who we're serving
We're fighting in your name
Allah
What's the use of you having a name...

As I fancy him
As I fancy him, he smiles easily,
As I fancy him, he thinks squarely
As I fancy him, he may even
Be the one that will become my lover
As I fancy him, and as usual,
He likes to meet people who love Love
As I fancy him, he may even
Be the one that will become my lover
And as I fancy him, he loves daybreaks
And winter mornings and the sleeping mist
The red clouds when dawn shows in the East
And then, from my dream, I just get awake
Where is he ?
Perhaps down in the south
In these towns where the weather's sultry
And I turn my head to the North
I turn my head to the South
And everything fades, with all my certainties
As I fancy him, he smiles easily,
As I fancy him, he thinks squarely
As I fancy him, he may even
Be the one that will become my lover
And as I fancy him, he is foreign,
As I fancy him, he's a musician
As I fancy him, he may even
Be the one that will become my lover
As I fancy him, if he is saddened,
It's because he feels he is not so young
But I feel the wind that now rises
Billows in the night, takes away my Dreams..
Where is he ?
Perhaps down in the south
In these towns where the weather's sultry
And I turn my head to the North
I turn my head to the South
And everything fades, with all my certainties
As I fancy him, he smiles easily
His fate will soon cross
my destiny
As I fancy him, he may even
Be the one that will become my lover
And as I fancy him, he loves daybreaks
And winter mornings and the sleeping mist
But I feel the wind that now rises
Billows in the night, takes away my Dreams

Bahia
Please
I'd like to go to Bahia
I saw it in Aladdin's lamp
I'll book two seats on a flight
Far away from the sound of accordions
and I love you
Hold me
In the morning
We'll see Bahia's waters
There's no hurricanes that's a pagan word
Rainy days don't exist
Rainy days will never come back
and I love you
Hold me
One after another
Savage and wandering water
Will come to you in its round path
Rainy days, what does that even mean?
Rainy days, how they make me laugh
and I love you
Hold me
