Natacha Altas is a Belgian singer who is famous for her fusion of Arabic and Western electronic music. She has Moroccan, Egyptian and Palestinian origin. That is why her music is mixed in those dialects. This song is about war...I think! 

It also appeared in the movie "Amreeka", which talked about a mother went to America with her son to start their new life. 

Arabic lyrics:

 

Ana shofto hinak

Wa2if lawa7do

Biybos lil bab

O kan biyfakar

Aiwa wela la2

Yibda2 darb ilnar

 

Ana shayfa

Wa2if 3ind il bab

Aiwa wela la2

Yibda2 bdarb ilnar
