We normally like to include translation subtitles. But in this case, Toura Toura is untranslatable. It is sung in “Bambara" which, in Moroccan Gnawa culture, has evolved to be a mixture of several sub-Saharan African languages, but is presently spoken or understood by no-one.
In present-day Mali, there are about 15 million people who speak “Bambara”, but they speak a very different Bambara than the one that we find in Moroccan Gnawa songs. In the early days of Gnawa, i.e. the early days of slavery in Morocco, slaves would find ways to sing songs in their native language in locations where they might be heard by a relative or loved one, from whom they’ve been separated, in hopes of reuniting with them. The Amazigh (indigenous) and Arab populations of Morocco didn’t understand these languages. The Amazigh word for “gibberish” or “unintelligible” is “agnaw” (singular) “gnawa” (plural). This is the commonly accepted story of how the term first came in use. Over time, these different ‘unintelligible’ songs fused more and more into one shared history - one of forced displacement and spiritual yearning. There came a time when the song lyrics became completely unintelligible to the Gnawa musicians who inherited them via the oral tradition. That mostly unintelligible hodgepodge of a language is what Gnawa refer to as “Bambara”. For decades, possibly centuries, Gnawa musicians sang in Bambara, understanding less and less of the literal meaning of the words. But as Gnawa musicians became more and more integrated into a Moroccan society which identified more and more as Arab and Muslim, they evolved more and more into a Muslim (Sufi) order. Eventually (in the 20th century), Gnawa musicians began to replace more and more of the song lyrics with Arabic / Sufi devotional lyrics.
Having said that, we can provide a glimpse into the spirit of Toura Toura, in addition to what is already transmitted simply by listening to the music itself.
All Gnawa music has a role to fulfill in the healing ritual called the “Lila” which means “Night” in Arabic. A “lila” can last for more than 12 hours, and is usually conducted in intimate gatherings, for the purpose of creating a safe place for people to get into a trance and be healed by the music. A woman serves as a presenter (or M.C.) - she is called the “Mqedma” - which means "she who presents." A man serves as spiritual guide (through music) - he is called the “m3allem” or “master” and sings lead vocals while playing the guembri (or sintir, or hajhouj, or gogo, depending on where you are). Several other men play the rhythm section (with qraqeb) and sing the ‘responses’. The lila usually follows the following format:
1) DbiHa (sacrificing a lamb) - like in the Muslim “3id”, this is a commemoration of the biblical story when Abraham was tested by God to sacrifice his own son.
2) Al 3ada (the habit) - an opening that consecrates the space - usually starting with a drum procession and some acrobatics. This welcomes the spirits into the space.
3) Ouled Bambara (the sons of Bambara) - before diving into the world of spirits, there is a profane section of the evening, to loosen things up. Today, this is where you’ll find most of the songs sung in Bambara.
Toura Toura falls in this section - so it is light-hearted, meant to be a warm-up song, to get you in a joyful mood before the more intense world of trance comes around.
4) The 7 colors (each corresponding to a different spirit)
The “Mqedma” signals the beginning of each color by coming out in a different dress (matching the spirit color) - the musicians play several songs (sometimes hours) for each of the colors:
• White (truth, belief, happiness)
• Black (mystery, paradoxical power - secrecy / protection)
• Light Blue (skies, calming, elevation)
• Red (fire, passion, love)
• Dark blue (the sea, depth, fluidity)
• Green (nature’s healing power, rejuvenation)
• Saffron (feminine energy, fertility)

The Gnawa (or Gnaoua, Ghanawa, Ghanawi, Gnawi) people originated from North and West Africa; to be precise the ancient Ghanaian Empire of Ouagadougou (present day Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Burkino Faso and 85% of Mali (pre Gnawi/Mali Wars)).
This name Gnawa is taken from one of the indigenous languages of the Sahara Desert called Tamazight. The phonology of this term according to the grammatical principles of Tamazight is as follows: Gnawi (singular), Gnawa (collective) and Gnawn (plural rarely used).
The Gnawa are an ethnic group whom, with the passing of time became a part of the Sufi order in Morocco. This kingdom bordered Morocco and Algeria's southern borders, and had a 300 year blood war with Morocco, prior to both countries forging a long lasting peace accord (conducted between the Monarchs of both countries alone with a scribe). Evidence of this is found is the tribal oral tradition of both countries (Soussi, Riffi, & Ashanti tribes). The result of which saw unprecedented levels of marriages between the Gnawis (ancient Ghanaians) and Soussis of Morocco. A small percentage of this community (Gnawa/Ghanawa) were given to Morocco's monarch (Mulay: to mean Emperor) as workers as a token and seal of the aforementioned accord. They traveled to Morocco by way of tribal caravans during (and external to) the hours of trade Trans-Saharan trade.

We normally like to include translation subtitles. But in this case, Toura Toura is untranslatable. It is sung in “Bambara" which, in Moroccan Gnawa culture, has evolved to be a mixture of several sub-Saharan African languages, but is presently spoken or understood by no-one.
In present-day Mali, there are about 15 million people who speak “Bambara”, but they speak a very different Bambara than the one that we find in Moroccan Gnawa songs. In the early days of Gnawa, i.e. the early days of slavery in Morocco, slaves would find ways to sing songs in their native language in locations where they might be heard by a relative or loved one, from whom they’ve been separated, in hopes of reuniting with them. The Amazigh (indigenous) and Arab populations of Morocco didn’t understand these languages. The Amazigh word for “gibberish” or “unintelligible” is “agnaw” (singular) “gnawa” (plural). This is the commonly accepted story of how the term first came in use. Over time, these different ‘unintelligible’ songs fused more and more into one shared history - one of forced displacement and spiritual yearning. There came a time when the song lyrics became completely unintelligible to the Gnawa musicians who inherited them via the oral tradition. That mostly unintelligible hodgepodge of a language is what Gnawa refer to as “Bambara”. For decades, possibly centuries, Gnawa musicians sang in Bambara, understanding less and less of the literal meaning of the words. But as Gnawa musicians became more and more integrated into a Moroccan society which identified more and more as Arab and Muslim, they evolved more and more into a Muslim (Sufi) order. Eventually (in the 20th century), Gnawa musicians began to replace more and more of the song lyrics with Arabic / Sufi devotional lyrics.
Having said that, we can provide a glimpse into the spirit of Toura Toura, in addition to what is already transmitted simply by listening to the music itself.
All Gnawa music has a role to fulfill in the healing ritual called the “Lila” which means “Night” in Arabic. A “lila” can last for more than 12 hours, and is usually conducted in intimate gatherings, for the purpose of creating a safe place for people to get into a trance and be healed by the music. A woman serves as a presenter (or M.C.) - she is called the “Mqedma” - which means "she who presents." A man serves as spiritual guide (through music) - he is called the “m3allem” or “master” and sings lead vocals while playing the guembri (or sintir, or hajhouj, or gogo, depending on where you are). Several other men play the rhythm section (with qraqeb) and sing the ‘responses’. The lila usually follows the following format:
1) DbiHa (sacrificing a lamb) - like in the Muslim “3id”, this is a commemoration of the biblical story when Abraham was tested by God to sacrifice his own son.
2) Al 3ada (the habit) - an opening that consecrates the space - usually starting with a drum procession and some acrobatics. This welcomes the spirits into the space.
3) Ouled Bambara (the sons of Bambara) - before diving into the world of spirits, there is a profane section of the evening, to loosen things up. Today, this is where you’ll find most of the songs sung in Bambara.
Toura Toura falls in this section - so it is light-hearted, meant to be a warm-up song, to get you in a joyful mood before the more intense world of trance comes around.
4) The 7 colors (each corresponding to a different spirit)
The “Mqedma” signals the beginning of each color by coming out in a different dress (matching the spirit color) - the musicians play several songs (sometimes hours) for each of the colors:
• White (truth, belief, happiness)
• Black (mystery, paradoxical power - secrecy / protection)
• Light Blue (skies, calming, elevation)
• Red (fire, passion, love)
• Dark blue (the sea, depth, fluidity)
• Green (nature’s healing power, rejuvenation)
• Saffron (feminine energy, fertility)

She's starin' at me
I'm sittin' wonderin' what she's thinkin'
Nobody's talkin' 'cause talkin' just turns into screamin'
And now it?s I'm yellin' over her, she yellin' over me
All that that means is neither of us is listening
And what's even worse?
That we don't even remember why we?re fighting
So both of us are mad for
Nothing, fighting for
Nothin', crying for
Nothing, whoa
But we won?t let it go for
Nothing, no not for
Nothing, this should be
Nothing to a love like what we got
Oh baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
Oh no no no
And it gets me upset
Girl when you?re constantly accusing
Askin' questions like you already know
We're fighting this war
Baby when both of us are losing
This ain't the way that love is supposed to go
Whoa, what happened to workin' it out?
We've fall into this place
Where you ain't backin' down and I ain't backin' down
So what the hell do we do now?
It's all for
Nothing, fighting for
Nothing, crying for
Nothing, whoa
But we won?t let it go for
Nothing, no not for
Nothing, this should be
Nothing to a love like what we got
Oh baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
Oh no no no
Oh, baby this love ain't gonna be perfect
Perfect, perfect, oh oh
And just how good it's gonna be
We can fuss and we can fight
Long as everything?s all right between us
Before we go to sleep
Baby, we're gonna be happy, oh
Baby, I know sometimes it's gonna rain
But baby, can we make up now?
'Cause I can't sleep through the pain
Can't sleep through the pain
Girl, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
No, I don't wanna go to bed mad at you
And I don't want you to go to bed mad at me
