I was looking for this song for a long time and today i found a website offering 11 variants of it, so i thought i'd share Very Happy

The best-known Arabic classical music is likely an ancient Moorish song called "Lamma Bada Yata Thanna," a fascinating piece of music set in the samai rhythm, which is written in 10/8. Its origins can be traced back to the tenth century, and it continues to be a familiar in the Arabic world today. As part of one of New Sounds' Theme & Variations shows, we hear versions by Juan Martin & Alhambra, Radio Tarifa, Hamza El Din, and others.

Here's the audio stream, it's from a radio show so there's some chatter between the music.
