Tinariwen - "Iswegh Attay" 

This song is the hug from your father, the smile of your mother, the kiss of your beloved one and the laughs of your friends, all together... And a cup of tea for each one of them 🥰

How can music language be as universal that even me - russian guy with snow, covering all I see from my window right now, can feel my own feelings from these sounds, have my associations and images in my mind even though I've never came close not to North Africa, but to any desert in general? Be blessed the music, language everyone can speak

انا تونسي امازيغي من عرف الفراشيش، متموقعة بسلسلة جبال الظاهرية بالوسط الغربي التونسي. ادعو بالرحمة لأجدادنا و ربي يبارك فينا

This song just stopped my anxiety attack. Much love.

Je suis amazigh du nord d'Algérie , mes chaleureuses salutations à mes frères et soeurs touareg dans le grand sud et partout où ils se trouvent 🇩🇿❤

Here I am in Hungary in the middle of night smoking a nargilé, listening to this fantastic music and now I just want to drink a tea with the Touareg in the middle of Sahara. Thank you Tinariwen for this feeling:)

all languages are beautiful, all words magical all people are lovely souls...and their music the rhythm of their precious emotions. Love from INDIA. Bless all Humanity!

من امازيغي إلى إخوته الطوارق ، انتم رائعون موسيقاكم ولاروعة😍 أفتخر أننا إخوة فعلا ولنا وطن واحد اسمه الجزائر .. من الاوراس الاشم ✌

أنا إبن الصحراء هي جرداء قاحلة إخضرارها و خصوبتها في قلوبنا تحية لكل من ينظر إلى السماء و يرى النجوم و يكاد يلمسها تحية لكل من سمع الصمت المطبق و أعلم أنكم قلائل

Read about their history. Massive respect to them. Music can be the voice for hope and change. Love from Nepal.

اول مره اسمع أمازيغ والله تدخل القلب و تحرك الوجدان اخوكم ناصر من السودان

I cant stop listening to this! Greetings from Palestine.

تحياتي من الشمال الجزائري إلى طوارق الجزائر🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿👑

I've never seen a video of making some tea with such intensity

Iswigh attay = شرب الشاي أنا شاوي من أمازيغ جبل أوراس و أفتخر و تحيا تمازيغت و الأمازيغ

So good! Listening in Kansas City, USA.

Je suis algerien kabyle.. Un grand merci pour nos frères de sang les Touaregs.. Tanmirt.. Très belle musique elle me fait voyager dans mon Algérie..

من السودان ميلون تحيه للطوارق واﻻمازيغين اعشق موسيقاكم

Iswegh Attay means drank tea ,I 'm a Berber from from the North of Algeria ( Kabylie )and I find that we have similar points with the language of touaregs, this beautiful music is a remedy to our souls and hearts

Must be great, to be out there in the dark, with a clear sky and the stars. What a vibe. Greetings from South Africa!

The man and the ritual of making the tea is beautiful. I don't need to understand the words to understand this music. I have fallen in love with Tinariwen. Love from the USA!

Lovely, calme, deep, just wonderful music & words....❤️💛🧡🤍 انا امازيغية من المغرب لكن لا افهم هذه اللهجة برغم ذلك اغرمت بهذه الأغنية ❤️👌 تحية للشعب الجزائري 🤍

I listen to this every morning with my dogs. It brings us hope and peace.

From an amazigh (kabyle) girl to our brothers amazigh touareg love and peace ❤ Amazighen =free man =homme libre

Great respect and admiration for this beautiful band and the music they give us. Incredible story. Merci beaucoup!

I listened to this fours hours in a row the first time I heard it. For those of you who wonder. He is sharing a Sufi teaching with us. Meditation brings light to the truth. Salam. An idiot.

تحية من اولاد نائل الى الطوارق اينما وطئت اقدامهم ..اشهد اني من اشد المعجبين بحضارتكم

انا من السودان واعشقكم جدااااااا يا تيناروييين ، ربنا يحفظكم ، موسيقاكم تلامس القلب 🌷♥️

the group is my favorite , proud of being of berber origins

every dollar we spend in music is an investment to another child refusing a gun instead of a guitar .n a story more compelling. Could not imagine my life without Tinararwin shame on my western government in Aust to do much better

من سوس الأمازيغية جنوب المغرب أشكركم على هذا الإبداع

إنها الصحراء الجزائرية🇩🇿❤️ التوارق هوية وتراث جزائري 🇩🇿 فعلا هم الأصل هم ملوك شمال أفريقيا 🏝️🇩🇿

Les touaregs c'est mon coeur,mon âme,mon esprit ...tellement fière qu'ils fassent partie de mon pays..où que la vie m’emmène dans ce vaste et merveilleux monde et ses diverses cultures,leurs chants,leurs vibrations,leurs appels me ramènent à mes terres,à ma culture,à mon Algérie.

موسيقى من أعماق الصحراء تحكي تاريخا وحضارة ...

I was introduced to this song by a fellow morrocan who travels wth me right now from Milan to Zurich. Love from a Malaysian ❤

merci dieu de m'avoir donner a cette grande civilisation immortelle "Amazigh" ❤❤😍et sa diversité culturelle qui na pas de limite ni frontière 💪💪

greetings and love from Romania and the UK, thank you for your expression

Love from Ethiopia Having a blessed morning This piece of beauty and bittersweet flowing into the depths of my soul...

A really lovely song and I'm an old rocker who was raised on humble Pie, free, Bad Company, Thin Lizzy and Frankie Miller. My eldest son turned me on to Tinariwen and I'm really glad.

مهما شاهدة وسمعت عنهم وعن لياليهم وعن جلساتهم فلن تتذوق حياة التوارق الى ان تمضي ليلة في حضن الصحراء الصافية ونجومها لامعة وشعور بإحساس رائع طعم لسكينة والهدوء والهروب من المدن الكبيرة ومن ضجيجها راحة لاتوجد مثلا لها شكرا توارق اهل المضياف اخوكم من وطنكم الجزائر شلف 😍😍♓️

فخورة انو الطوارق و ثقافتهم جزء لا يتجزأ من ثقافة بلادي الرائعة مثلهم مثل القبائل و الشاوية و العرب شكرا لإثراءكم للثقافة الجزائرية 🇩🇿❤

A sahraoui man make me full in love with the pure beauty of desert I became obsessed with this nature and music now after a misunderstanding I listened to this music with a broken heart

When the Music triumphs over the War, Guitar becomes the Gun, The sound of Bombs lean over the Bass of drums, Gaddafi's voices fades like the long lost tales of World War. Music is one of the languages which does not need translation... I don't know the meanings of the line though I am touched with every beat of the songs... Love from India...

I drank a glass of tea, while hearing this lovely song

lvl of chill is over 9000

I play this everyday I'm so glad I found such a precious music like this Greeting from syria /alhaskeh

تحية للجزائر وأهل الجزائر من المملكة العربية السعودية 🇸🇦♥️

"Swigh attay" .. Salam from Amazigh of Rif North Morocco

Greetings from Bangladesh! I can't express how this music makes me drunk.

I have a request to any Tamasheq-speaking person out there who is willing to help: The line in the song "The lion is intrepid and the frog is vulnerable, but the latter is better at finding the path to water" has really moved me and I wish to honor it by tattooing it on my body. But, since it's probably an old Tuareg saying, I want to do it in their alphabet. Can anyone transcribe the line to me with the Tamasheq symbols? If they cannot be shown here, I would gladly give my e-mail address, as well as my eternal gratitude. The song is beautiful on so many levels, soothing, filled with harmony. If only people would stop hating on each other and just started singing, maybe there would be hope. Best wishes from Serbia.

I feel complete. I feel at peace. I'm thankful.

Amazigh African Culture is amazing and don't let them bury it ❤️

Merveilleuse, je suis aussi africain du Mozambique - BRAVO!

This is truly heartbreaking.. especially when you know history.. Thank you from Canada!

نفتخر أننا ننتمي لوطن إسمه الجزائر وإلى بقعة شاسعة واسعة إسمها الصحراء الكبرى نعم هذه هي طبيعتنا رضى وهدوء وراحة بال وسكينة .اللهم لك الحمد. صحراوي وأفتخر

تحية من الجزائر الى كل التوارق اينما وجدو

Respect and lots of love from SUDAN 🇸🇩

I remember I went to Morocco last year. I took an early morning train from Marrakech to Rabat. I was alone, I lost my visa but deep in my heart I know I will be alright. This song was played almost non stop that day.

I looked for this for years after I first experienced it! Getting to see and hear it again is magical. Gratitude.

فجأة أحببت الامازيغية... الموسيقى لغة تتجاوز كل الحدود

احب الطوارق تحية لكم من الاردن عندكم تراث عريق

What an amazing musical talent to make people all over the world feel such deep feelings while hearing this music, even if we don't speak their language And an amazing art as well, the videographer making us feel as though we are right there, experiencing the richness of this tea ceremony and the pain this singer expresses And a great art as well this man doing the tea ceremony, making thousands of people all over the world wish they could drink from one of those four glasses Bravo to all! And thanks from the US for sharing this amazing song and video, I wish you all the best

How beautiful these ringtones come from the depths of the desert of Algeria I wish you a pleasant viewing

I'm Moroccan, I LOVE Tinariwen songs! it is soo inspiring ! it really doesn't matter from where they are!

Been listening to Tinariwen for 8 years and this is the first time I've seen their lyrics. Life-changing

From Kurdistan , really so good music, so good language , long live Tinariwen

J'ai la chaire de poule en écoutant cette chanson, quelle authenticité, quel charme ! Fier d'être amazigh. Vive l'Afrique du Nord unie vive tamazgha !

This is I don’t know how many times I have been listening this song to since a week from now when one fine evening RU-vid have suggested. It’s just such a treat to listen no matter how many times you listen to it. Thanks RU-vid, ❤️ from 🇮🇳

This poem and music effected me deeply. Thank you.

I had an opportunity to be living and working in Dubai for a year, every morning the smell from the sea market, that 1 dollor tea, that golden sand, that golden sky at dusk, stays gold in my memory.

هذه الموسيقى فيها أنس فيها روح جميلة جدا. تحية سلم وسلام من أغادير 🇲🇦

تانميرت إيمازغن مارا ✌ تحية فخر واعتزاز بهذا الفن الرائع عاش الامازيغ وعاشت الثقافة والاصالة لشعوبها ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I have the beauty of your hearts trapped forever in my soul. Thank you for the gift of insight into life n culture n dreams n me that I never had before you created this incredible piece of music........xxxxxxxxxxxx

My dad used to play this song, what a wonderful time was.

I was writing a letter. A long letter. And I listened to this beautiful song over and over again. For about two hours. It maybe about tea, but it sounds like a Mantra to me. Bliss and blessings for Peace, from Vienna. Thank you for posting.

Que la paix règne au Mali 🇲🇱 du nord au sud on est de même peuple peu importe la couleur de peau🇲🇱🇲🇱🇲🇱

From Georgia with love ❣️

This song makes me cry everytime I hear .. I don’t know why. I just love 💛🙏🏾 greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

Right now I'm drinking a "glass of tea " in my room in rabat Morocco and listening to this !!, huge thanks to Tinariwen for this class music . Great performance 👏👏👏

Love from Pakistan .. your music is amazing

I just camed back from timimoune and I’m addicted to this kind of music 🎶 Aghlad camp ⛺️ was a fabulous hosting place in the middle of the goûrara region Hope that one day I’ll have the chance to visit the Algerian desert again . Peace and love

Saw them live in Oct 2019, Vancouver BC An audio visual treat beyond words They sound exactly the same as studio, kudos to their sound and light team Post the show they were humble enough to meet fans, sign autographs and even sit at the merch booth Do not miss them if there's a show near you!

This track and ténéré taqqal always brings me serenity. My 2 fav tracks from Tinariwen, the vibe they bring is incredible and calming. Tanmirt

Love the music and the clip: the tea ceremony makes it very 'cosy'.

See you in Santiago de Chile in January! I absolutely adore your music!

No one is superior to anyone else, except in righteousness. All cultures have their good and bad. It's beautiful that we live in an age where we can share the good of each other's cultures.

شهادة اني لم اصادق شخص تارقي الا ما لقيت فيه الجود والكرم والشجاعة والطيبة تحياتي لكم خوتي الطوارق من ليبيا 🇱🇾 بس

Voici les paroles de l'excellente chanson touarègue Algerien "Swigh atay" : Swigh atay Taqqalahi tisnant alshash ere s taqqal sallul asraf Eswegh atay ihan elkas azzar s-ulhin har tisantas Tennedahi ham wer djennegh Fel nammoqqas hamti-d sektugh Ere s taqqal sallul asraf Ed es nedjet nammos aslaf Tamat tidagh dagh dassidjegh Wer asbakegh wer aqqimagh Akfor ahar abrur edjar muchan arne berin labkhar . #Français J'ai bu du thé Cette douleur est un fardeau Si mon cachot pouvait devenir aussi vaste qu’une plaine J’ai bu un verre de thé qui a brûlé mon cœur en premier Tu m’as dit quelque chose à laquelle je ne t’ai pas répondu Si l’on se rencontre un jour je te répondrai Cette femme que j’ai entraperçue Sans même m’asseoir ni m’accroupir … Si mon cachot pouvait devenir aussi vaste qu’une plaine Je m’envolerai comme un oiseau Le lion est intrépide et la grenouille vulnérable Mais elle est plus forte que lui pour trouver le chemin de la marre. . #Englais title: I drank some tea This pain is a burden If only my cell would turn into an open plain. I drank a glass of tea that scorched my heart. You told me something and I never answered But if we meet one day, I’ll remind you This woman, who I glimpsed Without even sitting down or kneeling If only this cell could become as vast as a prairie I’d fly off like a bird The lion is intrepid and the frog is vulnerable But the latter is better at finding the path to water.

Une des plus belles chansons des Touaregs d'Algérie 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿

As-salamu Alaykum.. Magnificent music that softens one’s heart with very deep & meaningful lyrics. So much love and greetings from your brothers from Turkey. We were separated but our hearts are still together!!

I'm Proud to be Algerian thamazight 🇩🇿♓❤

هذه الموسيقى اصلها انها تنبع من قلب الصحراء لذالك فإن شدة قوتها و جمالها تسيطر على كل انسان يسمعها مهما كان انتمائه او جنسه او لغته حتى و لو لم نفهم المعاني فإننا نستمتع بهذه الموسيقى و الكلمات لاننا نشعر بانها موسيقى عميقة توحد البشر من جميع اقطار العالم تناروين الى القمة و العالمية يا ابن الصحراء.. يا ابن الوطن ❤

اسويغ اتاي ايهان الكاس = شربت كاءسا من الشاي.....طوارق ازواد والجزائر شعب واحد

Bravo for this beautiful lovely song, still taking care of the Identity and the language, Azul from RIF to my brothers Imaziguen Touaregs

Music for the head! Sending you love from USA and Lebanon ❤️❤️❤️

تحية إلى كل الأحرار بأرض تمازغا التاريخية، فمزيدا من الصمود، والتشبت بالأرض التي لا يمكننا التخلي او الرحيل عنها مهما يكون، ولا عزاء للقومجيون الذين يظنون أن بإمكانهم تغيير الجغرافيا مثل ما زوروا التاريخ ...فتحية عزة وكرامة لجميع الأحرار .

Tea has never been so special to me before I saw this music video. so amazing. love from Bangladesh.

one thing I love about berber culture is the importance of living in community like in this video, no matter the hardships of life, at the end of the day we have each others to talk and to make some jokes, here in the west lot of people live by their own and no matter how much material stuff you can have you are not completely happy because the roots of happiness is about loving each others and caring for each others, this is one of the great teachings of God, Allah, Jah of whatever name you want to use

Music from and for the soul, born of pain, rebellion and hope. Respect from Trinidad and Tobago.
