Ma hadawin, ma hadawin, Ma dawin shelach? At rotza latus lebazel Uvelondon ktzat l'hitgalgel, Ein lach kesef lefalafel, Ma hadawin shelach? Ma hadawin, ma hadawin, Ma dawin shelach? Kulam osim ktzat ruach Lo, ein be ze bushah. Ach ma shekan batuach, Etzlech ze kvar sufah. Ma hadawin, ma hadawin, Ma dawin shelach? Ani yashnouni vektzat majnouni, Ach ba'etzbah, lo asouni Ani kolet otach, ayiouni, Ma hadawin shelach? Ma hadawin, ma hadawin, Ma dawin shelach?

You talk about Picasso For you da guys are on lock, You don't remember what's 'yassu,' whatz yer fuss? Whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss? You want to jet to Basel And chill in London , you ain't got 'nuff for a chili dog whatz yer fuss? Whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss? Everyone makes a bit of fuss ain't no shame in that. But what's for show is, that with you it's a fuss-storm. Whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss, whatz yer fuss?

Translator's Footnotes:

Dawin is Arabic. The Hebrew expression “La'asot Dawin(im)” is the parallel of the Yidish/Hebrew “Lehashvitz”. It means (both toghether): to show off and to make a fuss.

In the present context “Ma hadawin shelach” means: “What's this snobbish behaviour of yours”. Of course the (male) singer is speaking to a woman.

Sabonim (soap) means 'conformists'. It's the paralled of ‘Yeled tov Yerushalayim' or the slang ‘Chnun'.

Yassu is a Greek espression of joy, frequent in Greek popular songs.

Falafel is the classic and cheap Israeli popular food.

Singable Italian translation

MA ‘N FA' SCENA, DAI!

Tutto il giorno a parlare,

tutta notte a ballare,

ma da' retta, non lavare...

Ma ‘n fa' scena, dai!

Tu mi parli di Picasso,

che i ragazzi prendi al lazo...

Dar Tufello [1] vivi a ‘n passo...

Ma ‘n fa' scena, dai!

Ma ‘n fa' sce... , ma ‘n fa' sce... ,

ma ‘n fa' scena dai!

Te ne vuoi volare a Nizza,

e per Londra vuoi girar,

nun ci hai i soldi pe ‘na pizza...

Ma ‘n fa' scena dai!

Ma ‘n fa' sce...

Puoi darti, sì, le arie,

‘ché tutti un po' lo fan,

ma nel tuo caso pare

davvero un uragan!

Ma ‘n fa' sce...

Son dormiglione, un po' cafone,

ma non sono un frescone.

Occhio! Senti ‘st'opinione:

Ma ‘n fa' scena, dai!

Ma ‘n fa' sce...

[1] Quartiere malfamato alla periferia di Roma, menzionato in un noto ‘Stornello romano'.
