Like many folk songs, there are different versions, and most of them had a repetitive melody. The drum part is suggested to emphasize the two against three.
Lyrics - Transliteration
(Folk song from Bahrain)
Hamamuh nudi nudi
silmi ealaa zyudi
ziudi rah almakah
ayyb thawb aleakih
wayahtuh fi sinduki
sinduki maluh miftah
walmiftah eind alhadaad
walhidaad yabgh yalflus
walfulus eind alearus
walearus tabghi riyal
walriyal yabghi eial
waleial yabghu halib
walhalib ean albikr
walbikr yabghu alhashish
walhashish fuk aljabal
waljabal yabghi matar
walmatar min eind allah
la alih ala allah
muhamad rasul allah
la alih ala allah
English Translation - Dove fly fly
Dove fly fly
Say hello to Zyoudi*
Zyoudi went to Mecca
To bring a cloth to Akkah**
And put it in my box
My box has no key
The key is with the blacksmith
The blacksmith wants money
The money is with the bride
The bride wants a riyal
Real Madrid wants children
The kids want milk
Milk from the virgin
And the virgins want hashish
And the hashish is on the mountain
The mountain wants rain
Rain is from God
There is no god but Allah
Muhammad is the Messenger of God
There is no god but Allah
* Zyoudi is a name
**Akka might refer to a city.
Arabic - حمامه نودي نودي
حمامه نودي نودي
سلمي على زيودي
زيودي راح المكه
اييب ثوب العكه
ويحطه في صندوكي
صندوكي ماله مفتاح
والمفتاح عند الحداد
والحداد يبغ يالفلوس
والفلوس عند العروس
والعروس تبغي ريال
والريال يبغي عيال
والعيال يبغو حليب
والحليب عن البكر
والبكر يبغو الحشيش
والحشيش فوك الجبل
والجبل يبغي مطر
والمطر من عند الله
لا الله الا الله
محمد رسول الله
لا الله الا الله
