We are the Bamboutia and we have a proof
Traders working in the canal
We are the Bamboutia, we are the Bamboutia
You sing to whom, to whom, and to whom, O pigeons, you sing to whom
O boat of India,I wish I were your captain
To travel with you on the land and sea
And store rice in your tanks
Hey come next to me
Marzouka come next to me
Sweet, Marzouka, come beside me
