Translated lyrics
Go, dove, and listen to me, with the harp of my playing. And open your mouth and sing a heavy song. And hurry and don't turn to the path of your enemy. Take food and let's go. We'll eat delicacies and be satisfied. And we'll sing on the lyre and our song will go forth, and we'll enter into a garden, climb up a palm tree and grab its fronds, and we'll eat its fruit.
Notes
yemenite love song and dance. This song is sung in Hebrew but with the peculiar traditional Yemenite pronunciation (the vowels are completely different fron standard Israeli hebrew...the gimel is read like "J" etc.etc. clip here by Mazeltones, linked to from mp3.com
