[Dadutta]

oh, the young ofra.. real beauty

[MillionarioMan]

knowing this song & having (& enjoying) a recording of it since early 1977,as I recall,the radio announcer said that there was some kind of controversy w/ it at that time; that it was entered into an arabic/islamic music festival & was accidentally allowed 2 enter,by some racist/islamic censor's oversite.Rumor soon spread prior 2 the song & Ophra's performance.[still don't know the logistics of how they'd of planned it].arabCountries wer infuriated,as always&she was cancelled.that'sHowIrecall it

[Yamat0man]

i meant road, silk road, and yes jews were there before marco polo you cant have it both ways... oops oh yes you arabs can, truth and logic and consistency have no bearing.

[Yamat0man]

People who say arabic this or arabic that first maimonodes wrote in Arabic, the code of Jewish law was written in Safed Israel 1000 years ago. The "ni ni ni" is european and she is singing classic Jewish liturgy, am i lying chidurn?? Also those who say she was for 'peace' are fraudin' as well, 'peace' to her or any Jew with a brain contrdicts the Arab gall of this period pretending the Jewish people are from the silk rode only 'kahzars' because of one Jews' childrens story from 1000 years ago.

[Chemesch]

Shir HaShirim bé sha ashuim ! (8)

[Maryam0100]

why doesnt the sound work for me?!

[portos21091970]

you the arabs you are uncultured people ... you are consumed with envy for the glory and success of Israel and Jewish people

[uolaod]

ha"arts monitor of the sexual scandals of rabbis

yes i consumed alot with envy

haha

[Maryam0100]

@portos21091970 ... the day we'll have envy will be the day someone succeds us in LOVE FOR GOD :) ... materialistic things is never succes and succes is when u win by the WAY OF GOD NOT BY MURDER AND CHEATING AND RACISM ... AND BESIDES WHO R U ANYWAY URE JUST A DARK AGED EURPEAN ROMAN "WELL SAID HIGHDEE" WITH NO CIVILIZATION OR ELSE WE WOULD HAVE COME HERE TO TALK TO U IN RUE MOTHER'S TONGUE

[Kalepa81]

VERY DELIGHTFUL!!!:))) One day when, Yeshua Hamashiach, comes to rule & reign, I want Ofra Haza, to be resurrected to sing all her inspirational songs!!!:)) LAHAIM!!!:))

[Angelchilli]

It's my favourite song.. I love her voice so much, she's like an angel! R.I.P Ofra

[ChavaShank]

May Hashem give her neshama an aliya....her music helped my neshama find its way home to my people....Thank you....

[natalyta7]

I can not stop listen and watch these her early performances! So cute and nice!

[lizza11]

لاحظت عليها تقلد وتقتبس من فيروز اشياء كثيره :)

بس فعلا صوتك حلو يا عفرا

[robert7777777]

I just can't stop smiling when I hear her sing and see her. She is soooo sweet. I will for sure buy her albums if I can find them.

[VealParmigiana]

Most people are bad, and over aggressive. In addition to Ofra's talent, she was also an exceptionally nice person.

[judaicaman007]

a jew who likes only arabic music? Hmmm, I have my doubts.

[jjx1x]

lol well what about the arabic speaking jews? do they automatically hate arabic music? :P

[ReutRCohen]

Plenty of Jews are Middle Eastern. Go to Israel and you'll see for yourself, judaicaman. And Arabic is a very nice language. It's not exclusive to any one group. Much of Mizrahi Israeli music is also sung in Arabic. You'll have a hard time convincing Israelis that Jews aren't supposed to enjoy Arabic.

[egyptman5678]

i wish we can go to Israel. but there is a problem, WE AREN'T ALLOWED. if only we were able to get a glimpse of Al Aqsa Mosque.

[egyptman5678]

WTF who is the A hole that gave me a hands down. i didn't mean any disrespect. all i said was that i just wanted to see Jerusalem.

[ausama84]

you just said, we not welcome ;]

[72Yonatan]

Dear Osama84 -

Your hate is not welcome. Your love is fine, however. Why is the Jew so repugnant to you? Because we are the original, and your faith is the child. So respect your mother, please!

[Yoshuayovel]

Do you know the Temanim chant Hebrew, Aramaic and Arabic every Shabboth?

[Yoshuayovel]

Just stop being silly to response a anti-Zionist guy(if he was). Don't you see he smiles every comments? You will be the most stupid if you answer him.

[judaicaman007]

she would've loved to kill terrorists like you, and so would others like her.

[al7an999]

انا سعودي احب اسرائيل وامنيتي ان اعيش لو ساعه من عمري هناك الرب يحفظ دولتكم القويه والمتقدمه كل شي

وعوفرة بالنسبة لي كل شي في حياتي صحيح انها رحلت لكن

تبقى في القلب والوجدان حاضره كل لحظه صوتها مايفارقني اعشقك عفرا احس اني اطير مع الملائكه في هالمقطع 2:08

[michellepia007]

so sweet!

[swedgoy]

Ofra....everything about her...... her loveliness......Her gigantic vocal talent.... her neshama.....out of words!

[kanarina123]

how old was she here?

[omrisharaby]

i think 19 - 20...

[misolico]

the lyrics taken mostly from "song of songs"

[OdinnokayaDusha]

Beautiful performance and song ♥

Ofra was soooo young!

[Mtanic]

She was beautiful on any given point of her career... God how I love her.

[gobears1987]

This must be earlier in her tragically shortened career.

[amapolitarojita07]

i love this song but i don't understand what it say?

[laurakp2]

אם ישקני מנשיקות

פיהו מה יגיד לי

על כן מכל העלמות

שר שירים הוא לי

אם חבצלת השרון

לעמקים קוראת לי

אם יסמכוני באשישות

אל שדי שמור לי

[laurakp2]

שינייך כעדר קצובות בלי חוב וסתימה בן על משכבי שם בלילות כאבתי את כולם צרור המור הפך לאימה שדודי אמר בשיר סוס פרעה שיק ועבר את פניו מזכיר קול דודי הנה זה בא מדלג סבבה קול דודי הנה זה בא בא באהבה

[laurakp2]

מדלג סבבה

קול דודי הנה זה בא

בא באהבה

קול דודי הנה זה בא

אז בוא נלינה בכרמים

בלי חוב ומשכנתא

בוא נאהב כזוג יונים

כך בלי דאגה

[Ilyakub]

This is a modern love song that uses expressions and imagery borrowed from The Song of Songs (Solomon's Song), which is one of the "erotic" book of the Hebrew Bible, a love song full of sexual and sensual imagery.

While the Song of Songs is an important to all Jews (it is recited on the eve of Passover), it is particularly popular in the Mizrahi and Sephardic Jewish community of which Ofra is part, where it is traditionally recited on each Shabbat.

[Ilyakub]

Of course, all in a lighthearted humorous fashion. Hence the title.

[ilanadm]

Does anybody know where I can buy a CD or an mp3 of this song?

[educatedpug]

This is just incredible. How fortunate those are who must have seen her in person!

[XmaryxisxmyxcowX]

Thank you so much for posting this. It is great!

[ANATOLIACHTZEIN]

Why did she marry that man, what a SHONDAH!

[principemesticoSP]

I don't know why, but in this video Ofra reminds a little bit the great brazilian singer Clara Nunes (who died in 1983, so young as Ofra, and also by medical error), maybe the kin of the song, or the clothes. Anyway, I love both of them.

[maraxxl]

Her death wasn't a medical error. Although it was never confirmed it seems to be pretty sure that she died of AIDS respectively a disease that could only have happened because her immune system was down. She married the wrong man.

[NHK1111111111]

So glad it's on YouTube!!! LOVE this performance. So sweet.

[ayinchet]

btw tomi add ur videos to the ofra haza group if u dont mind ;) here on utube

[ayinchet]

adorable!!! but where on which festival? the one of shabat ha'malka?

and since when they let Ofra perform in public at this time?!

nice lyrics which no one knew before LOL

[NHK1111111111]

It's on Festival Hazemer Hamizrachi, the same as of Shabat Hamalka, but one year later I think.
