I'm a Syrian Arab, and north African Arabic dialect is very different from Shami Arabic that I speak. But since I've been listening to Rai Music since I was like 15, I can understand a lot of the lyrics.
As for Taha's Ida, it goes as follows (minus the parts I don't really get):
You set my heart on fire,
On fire you set my heart
And there's no star to console me
If your love descends on me
I get weepy
If your love descends on me
I hope to get peace of mind and my wounds heal
Lean on me, lean on me
With you I'm lost, with you I'm lost
The title 'Ida' means 'If'
Hope that helps.

I'm an American who loves world music. Rachid Taha is one of my favorite artist! Could someone please provide an English translation of the song "Ida?" It is my favorite Taha song!
