I've been trying to figure this one out on my own for three years and finally am giving up.
This time I'm hoping for the lyrics in Arabic, but also some info on what dialect she is singing in?? When the song was released on YouTube, most of the comments seemed to be about trying to figure out the dialect. I think I read that the singer is Egyptian, in fact that she's Angham's sister--don't quote me on that!!!-- but if so, she's sure not using a standard Egyptian accent! So again--what dialect is it? (or possibly, what is it meant to be? and is she getting it right?) No disrespect to Ghenwa, it's my own ignorance, but it's still frustrating!
Thanks so much in advance to anyone who can help!!!!

Just wanted to thank you guys for finding this song which I heard years ago on ART and loved!!! but had no idea how to find it. I didn't know the name of the song or the singer or anything. I'm so excited to see this! Hopefully someone will post the lyrics. This is the best site!!
Could you possibly please please please translate it to English?
I see now why I couldn't understand it when I heard it years ago, not just the dialect, but it's full of words I don't--although probably should--know! (like "شويقي "!)
