"Le Chant des Fauves" by Tinariwen translates to "Song of the Wild Beasts". The song is from the band's 2001 album The Radio Tisdas Sessions. It is addressed to the desert, with the band promising to liberate "Ténéré" from oppressors and reclaim their homeland from French colonialists (the true soulless wild beasts).
