Bi3 lebled / بيع البلاد [”Sell the Country”] (English Version)
[Verse 1]
Go ahead, sell the country! No one is holding people to account
No one is being held accountable and everyone is fighting over the seats power
Living to ignite a fire, the profiteer is seeking to benefit
He’s the one who governs the country behind his desk in an air-conditioned office
Go ahead, sell the country to your masters in Washington!
Sell her to the intelligence services of the CIA and the Pentagon!!
Let France steal our money and mine the uranium
Sell the diamonds and oil of Africa to AFRICOM
A film slanders the Prophet of Allah. An ambassador dies in the embassy
Politicians are assassinated in ambushes
Wounds! Tunisia is being undermined by the agents of Mossad
The Algerian generals on her borders, and Algeria’s intelligence services
A film, a film in a cinema and these actors…
Go ahead, sell the country! The senators will be happy with you
Go ahead, sell the country to yourselves in all your respectability
Chase after the seat of power while you let our children get killed by land mines
[Chorus](x2)
Sell the country! We elected you, but you beat the people and lie to them!
You keep the children of the country here without lifting any of the corruption
You’re all tyrants. Today, the people are fed up!
No one is holding you accountable, so go ahead…
[Verse 2]
Go ahead and sell the country right in front of the cameras
The people are still like sheep who are moved by the media
On the country’s borders, it’s a Hollywood movie:
There's bearded Salafi gangs with mines and attacks!
Look! They set up an Islamic emirate in Sejenane!
Tunisia will go back to being run by those who ran Afghanistan!
The niqab returned along with the application of the versus of the Book
I congratulate you all, but the terrorism was manufactured
Our political parties are nothing but mercenaries
They’re manipulating the country’s mood to make us welcome foreign military bases
We need protection because Africa is going back to being “securitized”
Because, after all, terrorist groups must be “neutralized.”
Go ahead, sell the country! Be proud of the proclamations
We were wounded right in front of all these charitable organizations
Go ahead, sell the country, Mr. President!
The “germs” are growing beards and wearing the shalwar kamees
[Chorus](x2)
Sell the country! We elected you, but you beat the people and lie to them!
You keep the children of the country here without lifting any of the corruption
You’re all tyrants. Today, the people are fed up!
No one is holding you accountable, so go ahead…
[Verse 3]
Go ahead, sell the country! Be proud of the proclamations!
Tunisia is the land of da’wa [proselytizing], not the land of Jihad
Drinking and nudity are permissible in the “civil state.”
And da’wa [proselytizing], whose name was given to it by God, has become an act of terrorism
Go ahead, sell the country, O police!
The poor man is still the son of the people, but his blood has become cheap
The men are still being blown up by mines on Mount Chaambi
And you still humiliated us with the hammer and torture us by beating the soles of our feet
Go ahead, sell the country! Go on strike against the economy!
Paralyze the country with sit-ins and unionizing
We drowned in debt while you stole billions
Go ahead, sell the country to the World Bank
Go ahead, sell the country to parties who squander our money
Stay in session in the constitutional council
Go ahead, sell out the country and lie to the people
The one who held power resigned and fled, but his successor's face looks just the same!
[Chorus](x2)
Sell the country! We elected you, but you beat the people and lie to them!
You keep the children of the country here without lifting any of the corruption
You’re all tyrants. Today, the people are fed up!
No one is holding you accountable, so go ahead…
