In the troubled and autocratic Morocco of the 70s (known as the years of lead), the legendary Nass El Ghiwane band wrote beautiful and allusive lyrics in Moroccan Arabic which were very appealing to the youth even in other Maghreb countries.
The band is the focus of music documentary Transes (Trances), directed by Ahmed El Maanouni, who described Nass El Ghiwane as Morocco's soul music.
More recently, in 2007, Nass El Ghiwane recorded a song by Lamdaghri called Ennehla Chama, which is about a conversation between a sultan and the queen of the bees.
