Gaza Gaza .. is going to die
Where are the nations? They have to wake up!
Gaza Gaza .. Tell the jews
Mohammad's Army is coming back

I'm watching on TV
Aircrafts firing & military ships shooting
Jews are malignant , they are fighting my religion
Oh Gaza forgive me , I wanna come to you , but who takes me ?
How many years these people ( Gaza's ppl ) were besieged
& Today they hit them with phosphor rockets
& Then they added the ground offensive
On the orders of the zionist Shimon Peres
This is the real terrorism , which caused thousands of victims
Soldiers (Jews) sent dead bodies to the hospital & to the morgue
To occupy the whole world , they think arabs should die!
It's written in the Torah , in Talmud's pages
That's why jews slaughtered the peace
& divided the islam from Jerusalem's borders
They are holding flags with the star of david
Oh 7afid ( Allah's name ) , Gaza is going to be overflowed with blood

Go & tell the righteous Caliphs
Ask them what to do , we've lost Orshalim!
The torch of religion must be created again
So that we can do the battle of khaybar , or the battle of Trench
Palestine is stuck in the debris
& Today Israel became a war criminal
When will the scholars do an "ifta2" to the governors
To make them get up off their chairs & go send the rockets
The silence reigned in the world , people are too silent
But don't worry , the resistance is always immovable
It's still patient , God has soldiers
Who started fighting with a strong faith
If we reach you , either men or women
We'll stand by you , we don't care if Jews stone us!
Because for you , the prophet who came to us (Mohammad PBUH) said
Our victims are in Paradise but theirs are in hell!

Jews are destroying & intimidating
And people around the world are all out to denounce , & repeat :
"Israel are killers , your actions are dirty & sinful , O you grandsons of monkeys"
(Monkeys , is because of the jewish Darwin's theory of revolution x)
In this century , the fate is going to be determined
And all your graves is already open
Quran talked in many verses
& said Inshallah Mohammad's nation is coming bach strongly
We have to unite the muslims
& We have to make deals of trueness & charity
& to raise the number of our prayers , & to use more sciences
They will be cursed from God
O Allah , they are oppressing in the world
They made the corruption increase everywhere!
O Allah , you're the defeater of the armies
Smash them & pour on them a scourge of your punishement

Enjoy

Noor : Hehe sorry ,I'll use it next time inshallah .. Missed you too <3 Larosa 's gone to uni ? I'll join her soon Allah y3inna

hoojacks : Wow you speak algerian even better than me! .. Bla mziya khouya ( or khti ! ) & why are you trying to learn Algerian ? just for fun or ?
If You want , I'll do the translation for "El portable " in a new thread ! ^^'

P.S : little correction : 3tatelna not 3teetilna .. 3teetilna means : you gave us

I've even dedicated my fb status to you

I feel so lost in this algerian thread, wa3lah??

haha we only had the class for one year fi jaa3meti, kanat le prof taliba te3 Fulbright min Tbessa, wa laken now she's back in Algeria ;(

dhork nshoof Youtube bash nqraw

and WOW. these songs are seriously awesome. if you have any other suggestions for rap/hip hop, I'd love to hear them.

ELEEF, haha I doubt I speak it better wa laken, shukran. I studied darija one summer fi Tanja and then one year of darija dziriya at my school in portland, oregon.

oh, and ana khouya te3kum, ya khti

honestly, I dunno why I am learning Algerian exactly. I study Arabic and I like north Africa, basically! I am going to try to go to a university for a year or two, either fil maghreb wla fi dzayer.

but also, I love hip hop and Lotfi is awesome so, that's also a good reason to learn Algerian


so, which city do you and Lotfi come from?

oh, and thanks for the correction they are always welcome!

Ow that's great .. & It'd be awesome if you come Algeria ! ^^'
Lotfi & I are from Annaba in the east , our accent is a bit different from Algiers' & Oran's accent .. But since your teacher is from Tbessa then it's close !

There are many algerian rap singers such as : Apoka - Chakir Eminem ( both from Oran ) - Youss ( from Algiers ) & many many others but I don't usually listen to them

Lotfi DK is considered as the king of Rap music in Algeria , because his lyrics are so meaningful & his style is so nice ( Not because he's from my city that's just what people think generally )

Sweet, thanks for the info! Yeah, she (my teacher) told me basically the same thing about Lotfi hahaha.

but hey, I'll take any suggestions for music to listen to. my teacher also showed me some songs by Souad Massi, and I really like those too (especially http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3i4nqrEsNc)

I hope I can come to Algeria! it would probably be in Oran, because that's where an American research center is. hopefully I won't have too much trouble there speaking like I'm from Tbessa

Hahaha Of course you won't have any trouble , people from the west love the accent of the east & vise versa

Ow Souad Massi , I've heard about her but never listenned to any of her songs , I like this one , I can do the translation if you need it ^^'
