Berber poetry

Berber poetry is a traditional form of artistic expression among the Berber people of North Africa, often reflecting their history, culture, and identity. It uses language, rhyme, and metaphor to convey themes like love, nature, social values, and spirituality. Historically performed orally, Berber poetry may be recited or sung, incorporating regional dialects and melodies. It serves to preserve cultural heritage, strengthen communal ties, and pass down stories across generations. Modern adaptations also blend traditional motifs with contemporary themes, maintaining its vital role in Berber cultural life.
