text: what is the name of the numa numa song? what is the name of the numa numa song?  who is it by? what language is it in?  is there anything bad in it (in english)?  can you get it off itunes? numa numa (or "the numa numa dance") is an internet phenomenon based on amateur videos, particularly one by gary brolsma, made for the song "dragostea din tei" by romanian pop band o-zone.  the phrase "numa numa" comes from the chorus of the song, "nu mă, nu mă iei," meaning, roughly, "(you) won't take, won't take me."   nu mă, nu mă iei ("you don't, you don't take me") becomes "noma, noma yay!" ("drink, drink, yay!")
