This is a very old song in Sicilian Arabic, this language today survives in Malta. Due foreign influences in Malta this language changed a lot. Also the song is a Sicilian Nasheed to Allah
Lyrics w/ translation: _qul allah ykfi a'n kul shay'_ قل الله يكفي عن كل شيء "Say that Allah Fulfills all things" _allah ykfi a'n kul shay'_ الله يكفي عن كل شيء "Allah Fulfills all things" _t'ala ila rabk_ تعالى الى ربك "Come to your Lord" _yatamknu_ يتمكن "He is able" _mutaknu_ "متمكن" "All able" _yatamknu_ يتمكن "He is able" _mutaknu_ "متمكن" "All able" Alternate lyrics (Also sound correct, but with a slight change in meaning): _qul allah ykfi a'n kul shay'_ قل الله يكفي عن كل شيء "Say that Allah Fulfills all things" _allah ykfi a'n kul shay'_ الله يكفي عن كل شيء "Allah Fulfills all things" _wa 'ala rabk_ وعلى ربك "And on your Lord" _yatawkaloon_ يتوكلون "They place their trust-" _almutawkiloon_ المتوكلون "those who are trustworthy." _yatawkaloon_ يتوكلون "They place their trust-" _almutawkiloon_ المتوكلون "those who are trustworthy." i spent a solid 20 minutes on this as it's quite hard to understand.
Respect bro, my brain always think about this song every night before to sleep so I get hard time to think about its lyrics but thanks to you, I can understand it
A quick sad but a bit funny story: When the Normans took Sicily from the Arabs, their king(probably Roger) wanted to build a church in Palermo and include Arabesque style architecture in it. And since Arabesque style almost always contains Arabic inscriptions of Qur'anic verses, that could not have been done because they wanted to build a church. So instead they resorted to sayings that are acceptable in both religions, like "Thank god" and the such. Except that one builder inscribed a very well known Islamic supplication, حسبي الله ونعم الوكيل (God is sufficient for me and He is the best advocate,) this supplication is said when you're oppressed and you wish God to send down a punishment on your oppressor. So most likely this builder was not happy about his new rulers and inscribed his wish for their demise without them realizing it.
Did you know that we in Sicily say Sabbinirica, which literally means Assalamu aleykum. We are the only people who uses this greeting in our native language
For those who are liking this song, I strongly recommand to visit the city of Palermo in Sicily and see the old monuments left by the Emirate, especially the former great mosque (Cathedral).
Noi siciliani sappiamo bene chi siamo e di certo non ce ne dimenticheremo perché nel resto d'Italia, ad oggi, si vuole far finta di non vedere/sapere che siamo diversi, sia culturalmente che geneticamente. Ci hanno trattato a pesci in faccia per secoli a causa della nostra diversità (il museo di antropologia criminale di Cesare Lombrosio è giusto accenno), e adesso vorrebbero pure negarcela... con tanto di studi genetici che affermano pure che, sì, parte della nostra genetica è nordafricana e mediorientale. Quindi, carta canta, poche chiacchiere. Non siamo europei, né africani né asiatici, ma semplicemente siciliani e mediterranei; nel bel mezzo di un connubio genetico e culturale che ci ha reso ciò che siamo, nulla più e nulla meno. Assabbinirìca, compa'!
Anyway, if your arabic script messed up when creating subtitle, you can try to edit or change it into picture first before inserting to the video editor
This song is strange, because it's lyrics are meant to be Arabic but it's singer makes it sound like a Latin romance language, rather than a Semitic language. When she says Allahu she pronounces it Ollaluhu (ol-la-lu-hu), making it sound like a completely different word. The letter ع isn't present aswell, and is instead replaced with ا, such as when she says تاالا لربك, the word تاالا makes no sense as it isn't a word, but if we change it to تاعالا لربك, then it becomes 'Come to your God/Lord' which is correct. I tried to make the most sense of the lyrics: الله يهدي عن كل شيء Allah guides about everything Grammatically, this phrase is correct, but it has no real meaning and makes no sense, it may either be a dialectal difference but it most likely because I couldn't fully grasp what she's saying تاالا لربك Come to your God/Lord يتمكن He is Capable متمكن The Capable There's also the harakat in the Arabic script, which I am unfortunately unable to replicate on this device If anyone has the origin of these verses I may be able to provide with a better translation.
Probably because this is a Medieval dead language, this language was a mic between Sicilian and Arabic thats why it has a lot of latin influence. If you’re referred to the lyrics in the video i made mistakens and also the app i use for subtitles don’t support the arabic alphabet
Sicilian Arabic was a dialect, not a language, we know this because the Tabula Rogerina (which was written by al-idrisi, a Sicilian Arab), can be perfectly understood by other Arabic dialect speakers. Although the dialect most likely had significant Latin and Greek influences (we don't actually know what siculo-arabic sounds like), it shouldn't deform to the point where it becomes incomprehensible, the singer didn't pronounce any of the ع and ء, and barley pronounced the ه correctly. Without the Arabic lyrics I wouldn't have been able to understand a single word she was saying, you did a very good job on that despite not speaking Arabic.
I found your explanation to be the best one, brother. However I'm still curious if the case would be one out of three possibilities: 1. The script that you have provided is the actual lyrics, but pronounced slightly different since it's a dialect of Sicilians; 2. The script that you have provided have some differences with the actual lyrics due to its own identity that differs from Arabic; 3. The singer could simply mistaken to pronounce the lyrics or poorly translated into latin by the translator.

Just asking where are the sicillian muslims now ? ( i mean the native Sicillian muslims from the past not the modern immigrants )
Many were resettled in the settlement of Lucera, in Southern Italy, when Manfred and Frederick the Second ruled the HRE. Most likely they followed the destiny of the moriscos centuries later, which is exile, conversion, or death.
@@siceliota7656 One day inshaAllah :) I do have a serious question, though. The phrase inshaAllah (or a similar one), meaning "if God wills", entered both Spanish and Portuguese as ojala. Today it essentially means "I hope" or "maybe" today. Did a similar Arabic expression enter into Sicilian?
Beautiful! In some parts, it seems like the singer was echoing, but that could just be part of the chorus? I'm not familiar with the language at all, but I still very much enjoy the song.
I once watched Paul Hollywood's City Bakes and I just loved the episode about Palermo. I, at one point, thought maybe the Sicilians weren't that proud of the Arab Muslim period because, when I came across an article by an American food critic and a pastry book by a British pastry chef who both were of Italian descent, both seemed eager to deny any connection between some Sicilian desserts and food and the Arab Muslim Emirate. Like Cassata Siciliana for example. They made me think, well, all traces of those times must have been swept away, then. Until that City Bakes episode which made me search for a Cassata Siciliana recipe and the funny thing is that the author of that recipe was in fact Sicilian and kept talking of the connection between that dessert at least and the Emirate.

As an Arabic I can understand it, but the accent is kind of weird to ears. And, the spelling and translation isn't accurate enough as I see.

may I know what is the source of the song? I wanna look for the arabic words as well as the arabic in the video are written backward so not very helpful sadly
I’m Italian and my paternal grandfather was 100% Sicilian, through a DNA test I discovered I’m 17.01% Basal (a number very high compared to other Southern Europeans!), the Basals are the first and original Arab tribe (originated in Eastern Africa)! I’m very proud of that! Allah IS THE GREATEST!
i'm learning arabic, and the arabic here is written quite different to that in northern africa or the middle east. is sicilian arabic really written in a non-cursive way? or maybe, is it even arabic at all? i once even confused farsi for arabic. maybe this isn't arabic
Fun fact: Maltanese (the language they speak in Malta I don’t know the name) is very similar to Arabic! Also as a Farsi speaker the song sounds a lot like Farsi, this video feels like that image where you can’t understand what any object is you know what I mean?
I am still curious to where do you found the lyrics and how could you interpret them? I mean I am struggling to look for it on Google but cannot found any data with any keywords in English as I could. I put possible correction on the Arabic script that you added in the video and its latin script based on my best interpretation. Please correct me if I get these translations wrong: اوللاهو (الله؟) يهدي انكولى شاين تل ربـٌيكا ياتاماكينو موتيماكينو ياتاماكينو موتيماكينو Olalaho (Allāho"?") yahdee, ankolé shayén, Tala Rabbéka, Yatama kéno, Motéma kéno, Yatama kéno, Motéma(a) ké(é)no.
Salam, as i found the song i didn’t find any infos about who sang it. Thats why there is no credits. The lyrics you wrote is better than the one i found, also if you see that in the Video are mistakes with the lyrics is because my app doesn’t support the Arabic alphabet.

Ils beautiful thx for sharing but thé subtiles are weird i cant read? You forgot to activate an option in your video editor "asian and oriental text". The text is writed by the wrong side ! This isnt arabic. About language it is a mix like arab-Romanic in Andalousia ?
@@siceliota7656 It is definitely Arabic. The singer's pronunciation is what makes it sound weird. I speak Arabic, not as a native language but i understood the lyrics.
Also.. who is the singer of the song? Any name for the band? I tried to trace it to other account which has choir chant for the poem that preceeds this musicalization. However, I found no clear answers to my questions still. Please responds back to me if anyone knows the answers.
Guys Sicily is Arabic Emirates "Sicily" comes from the sailor name Jawher sickli and the conquest of that island doesn't make any changes on people religion but culture and DNA is nealy same of Arabs
lmao cut the bs, the culture is Italian if anything maybe with a tiny bit of Berber influence, the average Sicilian today is mostly Italian genetically with 20-30% greek DNA and 10-25% Berber DNA
@@oussama1811 and u know what Berber means even ?

@@Mandalorian_John nasheed means sung poem and wether the singing is accompanied with musical instruments or not is irrelevant Like we call national anthems in Arabic "national nasheeds" and they have instruments in them.
I appreciate it I know it was established but for a short time I mean from 925 to 1010 AD I guess and then Norman Sicily starts which was also great time period for Sicily and then after Normans Italian states took over they kicked out Greeks and Arabs
They kicked out only the Arabs, we the Greeks have been victims of Genocides made by Italy and Assimilation. But still today most of the Sicilians has Greek origins
@@siceliota7656 most of them were kicked out just read Wikipedia.those Greek orthodox christians who were left were targeted by Italians I mean I always says that west were never good towards byzentine empire they completely left byzentine empire on its own and they never accept byzentine empire as a true roman empire because they prefer franks of Charlemagne empire which was Germenic

This is the most Semitic song I’ve ever heard.
may I know what is the source of the song? I wanna look for the arabic words as well as the arabic in the video are written backward so not very helpful sadly
It is because of the app i use to write subtitles, it doesn’t support the arabic alphabet. Thats why is backwards
Would have been incredible if you included no musical instruments.

is sicilian arabic supposed to be backwards like in the video?
amazing golden nugget hidden in my recommendation, thank you.
The subtitles is an error due my app doesn’t support that alphabet

Hi, do you have the original source of the lyrics?
I'm too curious to see how it looks like
I’m also interested in the original source! 🙏
Better casinoes than churches and mosques!!!
is there more from this singer/group?
I’m Italian and my paternal grandfather was 100% Sicilian, through a DNA test I discovered I’m 17.01% Basal (a number very high compared to other Southern Europeans!), the Basals are the first and original Arab tribe (originated in Eastern Africa)!
I’m very proud of that! Allah IS THE GREATEST!
Salaam from Indonesia brother, may i ask you something???🙏
What is the story of this nasheed? Who wrote it and when was it?
is this sung in sicilian arabic or in maltese?
This is a reconstruction of Sicilian Arabic, the Maltese language just evolved from it :)
@@siceliota7656 very cool!
I'm maltese and can't understand more than two words
does this song originally created with instrument ?
i'm learning arabic, and the arabic here is written quite different to that in northern africa or the middle east. is sicilian arabic really written in a non-cursive way?
or maybe, is it even arabic at all? i once even confused farsi for arabic. maybe this isn't arabic
Fun fact: Maltanese (the language they speak in Malta I don’t know the name) is very similar to Arabic!
Also as a Farsi speaker the song sounds a lot like Farsi, this video feels like that image where you can’t understand what any object is you know what I mean?
This language was spoken over 400 years ago, it doesn’t exist anymore nowdays. As i know the Maltese language is an evolution of the Sicilian Arabic
it's written in arabic but the font is broken so it's backwards and the letters are separated lol
@@abidano6517 can be, i tried my best as a non Arabic spekaing guy
it's backward broken arabic.
I am still curious to where do you found the lyrics and how could you interpret them? I mean I am struggling to look for it on Google but cannot found any data with any keywords in English as I could. I put possible correction on the Arabic script that you added in the video and its latin script based on my best interpretation. Please correct me if I get these translations wrong:
اوللاهو (الله؟) يهدي انكولى شاين
تل ربـٌيكا
ياتاماكينو
موتيماكينو

Olalaho (Allāho"?") yahdee, ankolé shayén,

Salam, as i found the song i didn’t find any infos about who sang it. Thats why there is no credits. The lyrics you wrote is better than the one i found, also if you see that in the Video are mistakes with the lyrics is because my app doesn’t support the Arabic alphabet.
@@siceliota7656 'alaykum ussalaam. It's okay if u don't know, brother. Maybe someday someone would drop the reference. Thank u for sharing. ^^

Lyrics
1.Arabic:
قل الله يكفيك عن كل شيء
وعلى الله فليتوكل المتوكلون
2. Transliteration:
Kol Allahu yakfeak 'An kol Shay'in
Wa 'Ala Allah fal yatawakal al mutawakiloun
3. Translation:
Say "Allah will suffice you from everything"
And upon Allah let the reliers rely
According to what is written in Arabic and English, it is:
الله يهدي عن كل شيء
تعال إلى ربك
يتمكنُّ
متمكِّنٌ
Ils beautiful thx for sharing but thé subtiles are weird i cant read? You forgot to activate an option in your video editor "asian and oriental text". The text is writed by the wrong side !
This isnt arabic. About language it is a mix like arab-Romanic in Andalousia ?
This language was the Sicilian Arabic language, today it doesn’t exist anymore, but the closest language is the Maltese
@@siceliota7656 thx for explaining. :)
Dont forger to check asian ans oriental text box next time
Good Luck for your projects
@@cafesoluble1121 thank you for the tipps 🙏🏻
@@siceliota7656 It is definitely Arabic. The singer's pronunciation is what makes it sound weird. I speak Arabic, not as a native language but i understood the lyrics.
Is this even real? How authentic it is ?
Is this the reupload?
Yes, i wrote in the community also, i have a new editing way which makes the video quality way better
Is this really how they used to sing and play or us it just a fan's art?
Is a reconstruction based on sources, if it is not the same it is very similiar :)

@@abuqadr629he probably meant "saved" as spiritually, by becoming Christian again
This makes me so sad bruh
Is there anyone know the title of the song?
Also.. who is the singer of the song? Any name for the band? I tried to trace it to other account which has choir chant for the poem that preceeds this musicalization. However, I found no clear answers to my questions still. Please responds back to me if anyone knows the answers.

Guys Sicily is Arabic Emirates "Sicily" comes from the sailor name Jawher sickli and the conquest of that island doesn't make any changes on people religion but culture and DNA is nealy same of Arabs
lol Sicily is the name the Romans gave to the Island.
lmao cut the bs, the culture is Italian if anything maybe with a tiny bit of Berber influence, the average Sicilian today is mostly Italian genetically with 20-30% greek DNA and 10-25% Berber DNA
@@oussama1811 and u know what Berber means even ? Berber is the meaning of anarchy and "Berber" from north Africa that u talk abt have no pure race bc they are already mixed with different DNA like Spanish or Phoenician .... If u check ur DNA u will understand that u are not pure and Sicilian DNA the most is Greek and Roman

Strange
Sicilians are were all time christians only a short period there were arabs but they all left sicily because they didnt want be christian and only the greeks remained.
The Golden age of Sicily until the Normans took it unfortunately
The golden age of Sicilian Muslims*, the normans gave us even more beautiful times, we were capital of Holy Roman Empire, we had a bigger Kingdom. But both Islamic and Normann era were the best
Well after some research yes they were both 🤝🏼🤝🏼

Its sadly not a nasheed but a good song
Nasheed literally means song or a sung poem in Arabic.
@@mono6330 yes
But only something you sing without instruments.
@@Mandalorian_John
Not necessarily,
Some people use it in that sense but they're wrong that's not the literal meaning.
@@Mandalorian_John nasheed means sung poem and wether the singing is accompanied with musical instruments or not is irrelevant
Like we call national anthems in Arabic "national nasheeds" and they have instruments in them.
Man
It isnt a nasheed

Can you do transalte this song Inno dei lavoratori siciliani ?
ua-cam.com/video/5_8asDEvUCQ/v-deo.html
I can’t, the song in Italian. I just post songs in Sicilian, Greek Sicilian, Albanian Sicilian and Arabic Sicilian
I appreciate it I know it was established but for a short time I mean from 925 to 1010 AD I guess and then Norman Sicily starts which was also great time period for Sicily and then after Normans Italian states took over they kicked out Greeks and Arabs
They kicked out only the Arabs, we the Greeks have been victims of Genocides made by Italy and Assimilation. But still today most of the Sicilians has Greek origins
@@siceliota7656 most of them were kicked out just read Wikipedia.those Greek orthodox christians who were left were targeted by Italians I mean I always says that west were never good towards byzentine empire they completely left byzentine empire on its own and they never accept byzentine empire as a true roman empire because they prefer franks of Charlemagne empire which was Germenic
@@deanticocombar7529 well they banned Orthodoxy and Greek language all over Sicily and South Italy. They always hated on us
@@siceliota7656 Do they still hate you guys in Italy or now hatred has gone I mean are you safe for practice your orthodox christianity or have you guys have freedom or they still tease you guys.Greek presence in Sicily is very old l mean really very old even before Romans
@@deanticocombar7529 they don’t really care anymore nowdays, a lot of people are now atheist or catholic in Sicily and the Greek Sicilians are almost all gone, we are all immigrated or assimilated. Me too, i left Sicily 10 years ago
We taught Muslim Arabs taught you civilization
Not in Sicily, we are between the first civilizations in europe. You’re talking about spain. Arabs brought us new way to sail, best cooking techniques and some fishing stuff
No one care
Nasheed does not have musical instruments because they are haram. This is song and music not nasheed.
No they are not haram. The Qur'an are not say anything. So not haram.
