  1. Variant 1

    Al Sur — Maîtres du Guembri Vol. IV (Baldassarre liner notes, 1996)

    Baldassarre, Antonio — liner-note translations; M’allem Sam & M’allem Hmidah (performance)

    Medium confidence

    The Al Sur booklet prints French and English translations only; the Arabic original is not provided and needs maâlem confirmation. Arabic form (script and/or Latin Darija) still sought from an attested source — missing is preferred to fabrication. The Casablanca (Mersaoui) school's Tréq Beidaoui — the seven-station path centred on Bel Byad — frames this song in its suite cycle. See `bibliography.ts` entry `baldassarre-alsur-vol4`.
