Chanson kabyle
 (Sung text for setting by J. Ganaye)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français) 
O Nésis, ma Nésis,
Ton âme à peine éclose,
Ton âme est l'oasis
Où mon cœur se repose !

Vois ! sous le ciel brûlant
Partout s'étend sans bornes
Le monde étincelant,
Le monde aux lointains mornes.

Là, mon cœur a souffert
Des maux qui ne guérissent ;
Le monde est le désert
Où les lions rugissent ...

Mais Nésis, ô Nésis,
Ton âme à peine éclose,
Ton âme est l'oasis
Où mon cœur se repose !
