Arabic to English translations [PRO] Art/Literary - Music | | Arabic term or phrase: ملحون | This is my context:
قد انخرط باطما مبكرا في الفعل الفني والثقافي حيث شارك في التمثيل والإنشاد في مسرحيات مستوحاة من نصوص تراثية ومن فن الملحون قبل أن يقرر ذات مساء رفقة عمر السيد وبوجميع ومولاي عبد العزيز الطاهري ومحمود السعدي في أحد دروب الحي المحمدي الشعبي ذي الحمولة التاريخية والاجتماعية في الدارالبيضاء تأسيس مجموعة " ناس الغيوان " التي شكلت النواة الأولى لانتشار لون موسيقي جديد في مطلع السبعينات ساهم بشكل كبير في نفض غبار الاهمال الذي طال تراث الملحون طوال عدة عقود وأبدع في التعامل معه لحنا وميزانا.

| | Malhoun | Explanation: Malhoun is a typically Moroccan genre where many elements of literature and the Moroccan arts converge and are underpinned by the rhythms of Andalous music (the zajal) and popular melodies.
A true poetic art, Malhoun is the most elaborate form of poetry that exists in Moroccan Arabic.
Trained at the Meknes conservatory by one of the greatest Malhoun masters, Houssein Toulali, Majda Yahyaoui is well known in Morocco for a talent that has won her many prizes.

Al Malhoun
If Al Ala is the music of the elite and posh families, Al Malhoun, however, is common in popular areas and among and craftsmen.
Etymologically, the word Al Malhoun comes from "Lahana" meaning: not to conform to the rule.
For craftsmen, it is the only means to break with work monotony.
Al Malhoun would be originating from the very refined local popular songs since it is a production of the zajal.poetry.
