Lyrics: THIS IS MY LAND This is Timbuktu, my home land, Where the children are mourning from gloom, This is my land, Timbuktu «the Maliba», The land of love, The land of warmth, The land of dignity, Here is my Nation... Why are we crying? Why are the children crying? Why are the young crying? Cause of unfairness, Cause of violence, Fearing the future... Here is my home Stop crying Cause no matter what, Timbuktu will remain

The video starts out with life in Timbuktu before outsiders come and take over the land. There is a family of three enjoying time together, scenes of traditional fishing and cattle herding, both genders enjoying time in conversation, etc. The outsiders come into their land and the women are forced to dress a certain way, the singer in her new required dress is being whipped, a man is being buried alive, another man has light shining on him so he can repeat what he is being forced to repeat, the family of three now just consists of the saddened mother and, at the end, the African statues are being blown up and destroyed--a representation of the final removal of the culture and ways of the people. Read about the history of the real Timbuktu (Tombouctou)--one of the world's first and oldest universities and about Mali's recent history--particularly in the north.

That scene where the converts/arab muslims were destroying the African carvings is a symbol. When will we Africans free themselves of Christianity and Islam and realize since their entrance into our lands they have been destructive. My ppl are equally suffering under Islam in the form of Al Shabab but our erosion of our indigenous culture goes back centuries. One day we will be free of it all, after all if I a former muslim black African can now see it for what it is perhaps more will soon too. Africa malin dow, one day soon

I watched the movie 'Timbuktu'. Loved the movie and the song therein. I searched for the song here on KZread. I did not understand the language at first. But I just loved the melody and the music. Such rich poetry ! Thank God. People everywhere feel the same. Tears came to my eyes when I heard the melody. I thank the singer, musician and the director. Watching the movie and hearing this melody have profoundly touched me. Thanks a lot.

i just can't stop re-watching, re-listening, re-loving this.

Very touching. Here is the Somali translation of the lyrics: Halkani waa baradaydii (dhulkaygii) Tani waa Timbuktu, hoygaygii, Meel ay carruurtu la taahayso murugo, Tani waa baradaydii, Timbuktu “Maliba” Arladii jacaylka, Arladii diirranaanta, Arladii sharafta, Tani waa ummaddaydii, Maxaa naga oohinaya? Maxaa ay carruurtaydu u ooyaaan? Caddaalad darro darteed, Qalalaase darteed, Timaaddada cabsi laga qabo… Halkani waa baradaydii, Joojiya oohinta Maxaa yeelay, in ay qaadataba, Timbuktu ayaa hadhi!

My home my land my heart, Africa. What a beautiful song indeed. Love from Ethiopia

Timbuktu Fasso ! Une émouvante chanson de la chanteuse, comédienne et auteur-compositrice-interprète malienne Fatoumata Diawara. Une chanson qui charrie la détresse de tout un peuple, meurtri et abattu. Le peuple malien. Mais, par delà les déchirures de ce peule, Timbuktu Fasso dit la détresse de toute une race et de l’humanité en lambeaux. « ko siniɲɛsigi jɔrɔ de bɛ an na (L’inquiétude de l’avenir est en nous), N ko denmisɛnnu bɛ kasi la yen (Les enfants sont en pleurs là-bas) ». Dans la voix brisée de Fatoumata, mots et maux se fusionnent. Un hymne aux dieux et à la Terre est né, où s’égrènent, une à une, toutes les désillusions des Maliens. Timbuktu Fasso, c’est aussi l’expression d’une foi inébranlable dans un avenir rutilant de soleil et de vie ! « aw kana kasi la Ala (Ne soyez pas en pleurs, Alla) Maliba don dɔ - bɛ se - - (Le grand Mali un jour vaincra) ». La grande musique est africaine. Prenez le temps et le soin d’écouter, peut-être les yeux fermés et l’âme ouverte à l’univers. Pour la section culturelle de Éduquer Haïti, Jonas Dorisca

I strongly recommend watching the movie "Timbuktu." This great film is a must see for everyone.

So amazingly beautiful: the soul this woman puts in her words, the calm guitar, this is astonishing. I'm seeing the film "Timbuktu" today.

Greatness is the result of hard work and favour, but greatness that is found, had already passed away. May the ancestors guide and protect us from the oppressors, strengthen our culture among our kind, awaken in us a great wisdom, so that we may emerge out of the darkness, illuminate like the sun, reclaim the glory of our lands and our ancestors, and never shall we depart from it.

I am from india and can't understand the words but music is mind blowing. Amazing. My favorite movie.

Hard to listen to this without crying, man. Wow.

when I play this music while driving long dist....I get emotional and pull over on the side of the....I love this song sooo much.

I first heard the name Timbuktu from my great grandmother when I was very young and she never provided any details to me about Timbuktu. Tears from my heart.

Thanks, soon I will add my Arabic translation, to the let the Arab world know those meaningful lyrics and sweet songs😍

Her Voice is so powerful

Simply beautiful...nothing beats African Music

MAGNIFIQUE. Avec ces horreurs en France, mon pays, et au Mali, cette chanson résonne dans mon cœur et me réconforte. Merci

MAGNIFIQUE !!!!

Mali is one of Africa's leading music industries.

Why did I NEVER learn of Timbuktu in any history class? This is wonderful! We were taught the African slaves were just "naked savages!" WE WERE the savages! They were modestly dressed subjects of Islam who went to schools and universities. We paraded them around naked in our slave markets simply to try to justify our "superior" attitudes. If learning about the culture of Timbuktu they were kidnapped from were taught in our school system -- a decent amount of humble pie spiced with shame would be in order.

Blessing to you from the Carolinas, “EhJa” will be a shield for us all

la rencontre de 2 artistes musique et chanson super !! si la rencontre des différentes cultures, peuples, religions étaient a cette image on vivrait enfin sur une terre harmonieuse

I listen to it again and again, SO wonderful. Greetings to everyone from Athens, Greece.

Certainly one of the most emotive and very touching musics out of Mali.
