Project: Afrikana Radio – African Music Nonstop
“Tawuriwin n Imawlan” is a powerful Tamasheq rumba song celebrating the wisdom transmitted by Tuareg elders through proverbs. Rooted in the musical tradition of Congolese rumba and the poetic depth of the Tamasheq language, this piece of African music transforms ancestral sayings into rhythm and melody.
In Tuareg culture, proverbs — known as tawuriwin — carry the voice of generations. Short but profound, they guide decisions, relationships and life paths. This fast and vibrant African rumba song brings those desert teachings to life through flowing guitars and rhythmic energy.
By blending Saharan oral tradition with modern African music, “Tawuriwin n Imawlan” becomes both a celebration of cultural heritage and a living bridge between past and present. The song invites listeners to dance with the wisdom of the desert and rediscover the timeless power of African words.

(Intro)
Amăssine n ténéré, s-awal s-tikna
Tawuriwin d iɣfiyen, yessawal ɣef tamurt
(Couplet 1)
Ad tzemreɣ ur t-feker ara
Awal n baba, ad yawi aman
Ad ḥemleɣ ur t-yeswan ara
Tikna n imaɣlan, ad asuf i war aman
Izri d tessin, ur ttazray
Tissira tawi-d iɣan ifraren
Ma tefk aṭas, ad teg d aman
Amek a yella yiwen d aṭṭan
(Refrain)
Tawuriwin n imawlan, netta t-yennan
Asaru n tudert, s-aman d asirem
Mara yufa awal, yufa asefru
Ayli d tawuriwin, tawuriwin n ténéré
(Couplet 2)
Ma tessawleɣ awal, seg afella
Imawlan ad yennin: ur segg s war amkan
Tayri ur teswa ara s igṛan
Tawuriwin t-ḥemmleɣ di wul
Taggara d awal, ul d tamurt
Iyaɣ d aṭṭan, ar urawen tazar
Ad mɛar a wiwen deg usirem
Ad sɣur tikna d tawuriwin
(Refrain)
Tawuriwin n imawlan, netta t-yennan
Asaru n tudert, s-aman d asirem
Mara yufa awal, yufa asefru
Ayli d tawuriwin, tawuriwin n ténéré
(Couplet 3)
Adu d tawuriwin, ur tetbeddil
Kra n tawuriwin, ttawas aṭṭan
Afella i d-yeswan iman
Asuf i nekk, ad t-essawal urar
Tamekra t-ittawin ɣef awal
Ula d iɣfiyen, ula d tɣurt
Tawuriwin s-ussan d ugdud
Tugga i waman, i yanan aɣer
(Outro)
A tawuriwin, awal n ténéré
Awi-as aɣer, awi-as afulki
Tawuriwin d aɣrad n tudert
Ila awal, ila tawuriwin, illa ténéré
