Tabarka (Tunisian Arabic: طبرقة ṭbarqa, Phoenician Ṭabarqa, Thabraca in Latin, also called Tbarga by locals) is a coastal town located in north-western Tunisia, at about 36°57′16″N 8°45′29″E / 36.95444°N 8.75806°E / 36.95444; 8.75806, close to the border with Algeria. It has been famous for its coral fishing, the Coral Festival of underwater photography and the annual jazz festival. Tabarka's history is a colorful mosaic of Phoenician, Roman, Arabic and Turkish civilizations. The town is dominated by an offshore rock on which is built a Genoese castle. Nationalist leader Habib Bourguiba, later to become president of post-independence Tunisia, was exiled here by the French colonial authorities in 1952.
Although older sources placed Thabraca within the Roman province of Numidia, recent ones agree in placing it in the Roman province of Africa, known also as Africa Proconsularis. It was a Roman colony. It was connected by a road with Simitthu, to which it served as a port for the exportation of its famous marbles.
She the queen of my heart
She plays very great part in me
I'm me
She the queen of my heart
And that's a very great start in me
Can't you see
I don't know why she love me so
Why I guess, I'll never know
But I can tell she really care for me
So I'll give her love to last a life time
That will never die
Oh, how I love that girl
