Czarek where did you learn all this morrocan?
I like the wa5a t3awne one

I had a very nice friend Rose from Marocco (unfortunately she moved to Malesya ,so we lost contact)She taught me few things which i wrote them down in my دفتر

But u know it is so hard to understand Maroccan's (when they speak their dialect and mix french for instance:every two words

Look at this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHmJJQphoyA

The begining of this song is easy to understand ,but starting from 0:36,maybe u will hear something more(by the way i like this song)

As I hear he sings:

"wa m3ak ndeer ad-daar walay(i think he means "I will make a house with =in meaning we will be happy together ,"wadonne l-hopitale"(here is the first mix"they take me to the hospital).
wa 3alay "maraD mental"=(again mix)and i am sick mentaly

after that I canot follow the translation

I think i will post this song for translation:

Mmm its not too bad I understood some of it
Istana ishway 3alaya
Ilamr mish b2idaya
Ba3tik ro7i o 3inaya
Mahma iy2olo ilnas

The woman is easier than the man :s dawini dawini inta 7abib ro7i o 3inaye

Dayman inta fi bali
Witsahirni il layali
Ba7lam ma3ak ya 3'ali
Ya 3ishqi o amali!!

---wa3lanti il7arb 3alaya!!

ro7i ya ro7i
ya dawa kol ijro7i
ro7i ya ro7i
afdeek ibdami o ro7i!!

I dont understand a word the man says (arent men always so incomprehensible? They never make sense lol j/k)

Yallah I cant wait for the translation (and lyrics please!!) Especially the guy's verses

the translation of some sentences looks good. If you can get me the lyrics, then i will translate it for you
Yeah, in moroccan you'll find much words in French. That comes because they were a colony of France.
