Idir & Zahra - A Vava Inouva

"i ask you father inouva, open the door
o daughter ghriba, shake your bracelets
i fear the monster of the forest father inouva
o daughter ghriba, i fear him too

the old one is rolled up in his "burnous" (traditional trenchcoat)
in the distance, to warm himself
his son is scared to earn bread
looking at the days to come
the grand-dauhter-in-law sews
without stopping putting the cloth
the children around the grandmother
learn the teachings from the old days

the snow pushes up against the door
the stew in the large cooking pot
the elders begin dreaming of springtime
the moon and the stars being the canopy
the oak tree replaces the view
the family gathers together
ready to listen to the story"

  • I guess this is not Karen Matheson but i upload a video which is A vava Inouva 2 and Karen sings :)

  • @TheSuperlatif I thought there were only 2 versions of the song!!!!!! The 1970's version, then the 2001 A Vava inouva 2 from the album "Identités", which had Karen Matheson. Like you said, this isn't her. but my God this is beautiful. Thank you for uploading it.

  • @ettore164 thank you so much for information, i did not know :) i thank you for listening :)
