Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Wahrane by Khaled from Dutch to English.
Wahran, wahran rohti kh'sara
Oran, Oran, you've gone to waste
Hejro mennek nas shtara
Plenty of people walked out on you
Ya wahran rohti kh'sara
Oh Oran, you've gone to waste
Hejro mennek nas shtara
Plenty of people walked out on you
Gadou fel ghourba hyara
They ended up lost in exile
Wel ghourba s'ibaw ghaddara
And exile's tough and treacherous
Yawady 'la wled elhemry
Oh man, the kids of El-Hamri
Wled lemdinaw sidil hewary
Boys from our town, Sidi El-Houari
Yawady 'la wled elhemry
Oh man, the kids of El-Hamri
Wled lemdinaw sidil hewary
Boys from our town, Sidi El-Houari
Addit ma'houm shoughry
I spent my youth with them
Yawady 'la wled elhemry
Oh man, the kids of El-Hamri
Wled lemdinaw sidil hewary
Boys from our town, Sidi El-Houari
Wel yoom n'fenni toul omri
And now I'm nearing the end of my days
Wady 'la tahtaha wady
Valleys under more valleys
Bled zeen ha zinel widady
A lovely land, so full of love
Wady 'la tahtaha wady
Valleys under more valleys
Bled zeen ha zinel widady
A lovely land, so full of love
Neg'ad wentaty fou'ady
I sit while my heart aches
Wel yoom nebki wen nady
And today I cry and call out
Omry ma nensa bladi
I'll never forget my country
Ardy Ard j'dady
It's my land, my ancestors' land
Nwessy tani alannas
I try again to warn people
Terko deenhom o tebool kass
They dropped their faith and down glasses
Yedzina mnel kas welbayda
Enough with the cup and the bottle
Raha echra bla fayda
This partying's pointless
Yedzina mnel kass wel bayda
Enough with the cup and the bottle
Raha echra bla fayda
This partying's pointless
