It's not really Arabic. That look like the Egyptian dialect. Also, Arabic is litteraly a language built to sound as poetic as possible. Fun fact : in ancient Arabia, the best poets regularly gathered for poetry dissing battles and the burns were sicker than anything today.

Egyptians don't use "shloun", this is a Levantine dialect, probably Syrian.

Yeah , i know . i couldn't understand the first word and though it was some kind of smudged text they tried erasing so didn't bother trying to decipher it. Remove that word and it's the Egyptian dialect and yet they sound nothing alike.
