[grtwhtbnr]

@SWBism Confusion...ACHIEVED!

[AlexMoby]

Orphaned Land shows that harmony between different peoples can be possible. Their tour in Europe proves it .

[MrLuciferion]

@AlexMoby yes,because we are brothers of metal...fans of other music genres would kill each other :)

[wadgattait]

[fleminghell]

the fact that these guys even Exist is a great thing...the fact they also kick arse is the icing on the cake. Fuckin brilliant! just wish I understood a bit of arabic!

[tatianamandelli]

@SWBism Thanks to explain!

[MetalheadMatt2010]

[uchicha666]

What the hell means "Sapari"? Could anyone tell me?

[aaaa11112222bbbb33cc]

@uchicha666

maybe google translate can say what spari means

[yardekell]

@aaaa11112222bbbb33cc

Sapari is "tell me" (for woman) in the ancient Jewish Yemenite language...

[woonitu]

@uchicha666 it means tell me

[uchicha666]

@woonitu yhank you very much. Now full lyrics translated into english, please ;)

[nahing]

@uchicha666 I once asked a jewish woman and she said it meant "my barber". since Adding and i makes it "My [word]" and sapar means barber.

Kinda went wtf at that :P

[uchicha666]

@nahing

hahahhaha I don't think so. I know already it's an ancient song so I doubt it's about barber ;p

Someone here told it means "Tell me" and I guess this is correct hahaha lol ;)

[clendor1]

@uchicha666

(female) "tell me

[AcodinaVenena]

@uchicha666

In my opinion word 'sapari' is a synonym of 'sofer', which means man learned in Torah, scribe. Argument, which can back up my theory is the same root in word 'sapari' and 'sofer' - סופר. The difference appears when you want to read this word, because as we know in Hebrew letter known in Latin alphabet as a "P" has name 'Pei', and the letter 'F' is known as a 'Fei'. Pei and Fei haven't got cloistered letters, both are represented by the same letter 'Pei/Fei' - פ.

[AcodinaVenena]

@uchicha666

Aside from this, clip of this song shows man, who is writing something in Hebrew, and we can suppose that he is studying Torah.

Of course I can be mistaken, that's my totally loose interpretation which I conceived between learning about Ancient Israel and listening to this amazing song ;)

@uchicha666

Sapari li - means tell me in hebrew

Sapari tame tamima...

Its is a chapter from The Bible.

[Bagelboy615]

It's a band from Israel. It's gonna grab a few different languages to sing in. Deal with it. <3

[wasabib]

Did someone notice there's is a hanging guy/lady in the central mast of Ophaned Land's logo? What'd it be

[Shakephobiaful]

@wasabib

yes, indeed there is a woman hanging on the mid pole of their symbol. its actualy the vocalist, kobi, drawn as a woman, for the cover.

[Amonarok]

Fuck the bullshit religious banter, good tunes is good tunes.

[RoseImmortal]

Actually, the design reminds me very strongly of the Methodist church's cross, which does indeed have a flame representing the Holy Spirit. Surely you're not going to tell me you think Methodists are satanic. ;-)

[ahturion]

why they put the cross as symbol....why they cannot put something else.?

[MonthuRa]

@ahturion the cross is a symbol of many religions, way before christianity.

[ahturion]

@MonthuRa , i know this thing,but c'mon ,why they need to put a burning cross,and sometimes with snakes,are they against christianity?because their symbol is a burning cross,and i consider it satanic enough.Why a cross?why not something else,i like their genre of music,but i'm christian and i don't like to see burning cross,because the cross for me is a saint symbol.And i think that doesn't matter if the cross is or not before christianity,the symbol of the cross nowadays is important not then.

[MonthuRa]

@ahturion Not everything on fire is Satanic. lol come on, just chill and enjoy the music, no use getting butt hurt.:/.

[MonthuRa]

@ahturion also, what fire are you takling about?

[ahturion]

@MonthuRa on the left and on the right side of the cross....there are flames for me ,or maybe i'm the only guy who see flames on the cross .

[MonthuRa]

too bad they cant make money off their music now, i heard they have to give it for free. which sucks nad makes me feel bad.

[Jtherva]

Awesome

[MonthuRa]

this is fuckign awesome! it sounds like turkish music tho.

[37Darkshadow]

@MonthuRa it's Ararbic

[DISCOnnected90]

@37Darkshadow No my friend, it's not Arabic; it's Hebrew. ;)

[shlomir82]

@DISCOnnected90 its not hebrew its yaman

[DISCOnnected90]

@shlomir82 לא. זו עברית בהיגוי תימני, זה כן. תימנית זה בטח שלא - תימנית זה ניב של ערבית. השיר כאן הוא לחלוטין בעברית, עם ההיגוי התימני, שהוא הקרוב למקור - לעברית הארכאית.

[37Darkshadow]

@DISCOnnected90 My friend told me it was Arabic...

[DISCOnnected90]

@37Darkshadow My native language is Hebrew. I can assure you that they sing in Hebrew (apart from one verse in English), I understand it all. I agree that the tone sounds a bit like Arabic's, but that's because it's archaic Hebrew pronunciation, which is close to nowadays' Arabic pronunciation.) ;)

[Unkompliziert]
