The upbeat chorus of O-Zone's Dragostea Din Tei, the 2004 Eurodance hit behind the Numa Numa meme, used for dance edits and nostalgic throwback videos.

This clip captures the instantly recognisable chorus of Dragostea Din Tei, with its bright, bouncing Eurodance beat and the playful Romanian vocal hook that most listeners know as ma-ya-hi and ma-ya-hu. The melody is fast, cheerful and relentlessly catchy, building with synth stabs and a driving rhythm that feels like a summer party anthem. Hearing just a few seconds is usually enough to trigger a smile, a singalong or an urge to dance, which is why it works so well as a punchline or an energy boost in short videos.

Dragostea Din Tei was recorded by the Moldovan pop group O-Zone and became an international hit in 2004, topping charts across Europe with its Romanian-language chorus. Later that year, American teenager Gary Brolsma filmed himself lip-syncing and dancing to the song in his bedroom, and the clip, widely known as Numa Numa, became one of the internet's first viral videos. Shared through early video sites and later TikTok, the chorus has stayed in circulation as shorthand for carefree, early-internet nostalgia.

Professionele tip voor gebruik

Drop the chorus right on the reveal or dance move, not during the setup, so the hook lands with the visual payoff. Keep it loud for the first beat, then duck it under dialogue, and avoid looping it more than twice.
