Hello,
I'm a professional American belly dancer performer and instructor looking for Hakim's 'Ha Boussou' lyrics translated to English. I am having no luck, does anyone know what this song is about or where I can find out? Thanks for your help, I don't speak Arabic and I usually can find lyrics with no problem. I like to know what I'm dancing to.

This it?

(spoken) Everybody form a circle...

Put your left foot in,
Your left foot out,
Your left foot in,
And shake it all about.
You do the hokey pokey
And turn yourself around.

Now put your right foot in,
Your right foot out,
Right foot in
Then you shake it all about.
And then you do the Hokey Pokey
Turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about.

You put your head in,
You put your head out,
Put your head in,
And bang it all about.
Do the Hokey Pokey
And turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about.

Let's Do the Hokey Pokey!
Let's Do the Hokey Pokey!
Let's Do the Hokey Pokey!
That's what it's all about.

Put your right hand in,
Your right hand out,
Your right hand in,
And shake it all about,
You do the Hokey Pokey,
And you turn yourself around.

Now put your tongue in,
And your tongue out,
Tongue in,
And Blblblblbl!
You do the Hokey Pokey
Turn yourself around
That's what it's all about.

You put your bottom in,
Put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Put your bottom in,
You put your bottom out,
Do the Hokey Pokey,
Turn yourself about.

Let's do the Hokey Pokey!
Let's do the Hokey Pokey!
Let's do the Hokey Pokey!
That's what it's all about.

Finally an intelligent answer! In case anyone is interested:

ABOUSO. By Hakim

Ammar = moon.
We use ammar as the same use of gorgeous or beautiful (the one with the face that is as pretty as a moon.
Please oh ammar keep in touch because you have been gone for so long.
I wonder if you still remember me.
If I can get my hands on him (her) the first thing that I would do is run to him (her) and kiss him (her)
Bousah = a kiss
Abous = to kiss
Bouso = to kiss him (in Arabic poetry normally a male can sing for either male or female but the meaning is for a female. On the other hand a female can only sing for a male)
Like a man can sing Habbibi or habbibty but a woman can only sing habbibi.
I ask you my precious one ghalli = precious.
Let us go back to the way that it used to be, days full of love, happiness.
Put your hand in mine and let us live a happy 30 days of every month.
I will flirt with you and sing for you.
If I can only get to you
Rah temil aih = what would you do (the chorus sings this line)
I will run to him (her) and abouso = kiss him……
I love you and I am welling to spoil you, so let us throw our worries away.
Let us fall in love all over again.
A word, a look, a glance, a whisper
Let us be happy from now on……….
