"The Migrating Bird" ("الطير المهاجر") by Mohammed Wardi | English Translation

The Sudanese musical classic “The Migrating Bird,” written by Salaah Ahmad Ibraheem and sung by Muhammad Wardi. It’s reported that Wardi came across the poem while in Kosti in 1963, and was particularly touched by its themes due to the then-recent flooding of Wadi Halfa, which led to massive displacement of the Halfawi people.
