Track 2 on the March 2014 release - Akal Warled / Un pays étranger / A Strange Country
available here: http://www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/CLE.008CD.html
This title refers to the issue of exile and its penalties. The song speaks of the suffering of the Tuareg, repeatedly refugees in Mauritania, Niger, Burkina Faso and Algeria, due to the cyclic armed conflict in their regions of northern Mali.

A country that is not yours is bitter  
It brings relentless depression to the soul 
They want to go home from where they came 
This country dries me out inside
My spirit and heart despair 
A country that is not yours is bitter  
It brings relentless depression to the soul
They want to go home from where they came 
Saharans Fighters, I implore you 
Speak with one voice
Unify this Revolution
A country that is not yours is bitter 
It brings relentless depression to the soul
They want to go home from where they came

Le chagrin qui s'incruste en moi est une épine dans ma poitrine..."

Le titre "Mon âme vit dans le ténéré" nous raconte Aneslem El Hassen dit Mahmoud...
Mon âme vit dans le ténéré, mon corps vit en société
Je ne peux faire confiance à personne, sauf à l'amour sincère
Je pense à ces pauvres gens aux faux visages
Ils ne savent pas qu'un jour, la vie les dévoilera.

Here are the lyrics:
The women before, we could recognize them because 
They drank cow milk 
Or they ate butter made from cow milk
And their clothes were Indigo
And they slept on large beds
Where have these women from the old days gone
Nowadays, women are like ends of square wood 
Straight, dry and without souls, rolled up in miserable rags
Ah nostalgia, my heart trembles, it cries
Louder than a young goat bloated with acacia leaves
