Yes, it was written by R. Shabazi. Most of the poetry she sings, tz"l, is his. Beautiful. Both were assets to the Jewish community and have no substitutes.
Pedazo de voz esta si es una verdadera artista!!! Fue la 1ª artista que escuche xcon la cancion "yerushalayim shel zava" los mejores artistas judios son los yemenitas/mizraji. Supera a cualquier artista israeli (todos me gustan, pero como las voces yemenies o mizraji... me ponen los pelos de gallina)
Forget politics and all that crap . . . this was one of the most amazing voices of the second half of the 20th century. And she shone light on a musical tradition that very few people knew about. I haven't a clue what she is singing about, and it doesn't matter. Amazing. I could have done without all the dancing, though. . .
Ofra Haza is very beautiful woman, with brilliant voice. SHALOM FROM POLAND TO JEWISH BROTHERS. This nation is in my heart, because Jesus Christ is my Lord. My family was helping Jews during Second World War, when German soldiers of Adolf Hitler wanted to KILL Jews, and helping them Polish People. Cousin of mu grand mother hide Jew man in her house. After war they was married :) PRAY FOR ISRAEL!
אין סיבה להצתנע: עפרה חזה היתה אחת הזמרות הכי טובות בעולם. מבחינת הקול היתה לה צלילות מדהימה ואיך שהיא הגישה אותו לקהל בכזו אהבה העצימה אותו בפי כמה. פה זו דוגמה מצוינת כי היא גם שרה בשפת המוצא שלה, בה היא נשמעת הכי איכותית.
There is a Great Spirit in the voice of Ofra and in the dancing of the old couple...something so natural...so natural hapiness...the hapiness of being with God!:)
I think he is not old, I think he is a disguised young man. it would be impossible for an old man all that agility... but if he is really an old man he is really in good shape!!!
the old man so funny, ofra did good dance like ayemeni dance, we call aldasah, but the other group in the video dancing diffrent, is not like yemeni dance , may be is created by yemenite jew, but any way i like it too. good job.
This is a Kabbalistic devotional poem set to music, as are all the songs on this album. The beginning means something along the lines of "Rock of my existence and object of my desire, my strength and my support, rock of my existence." Obviously that's not the whole thing, but it's a start.
Correction, even worse! A GIRL!!! You did ask why they were dressed as Yemenites no? This is Ophra Haza,was it not obvious why she was dressed that way? So, not just uh, cuz it wasn't obvious to you y she was dressed that way but, DUH for ASSUMING that I was a boy.SOOOO.Well, I am an AMERICAN so don't BOY me. BURRRRRN!
Shalom -Salam, beautiful Woman and Singer ! We love the Songs of Ofra very much and we dance to it very often in our Dancegroup - take a look to our Yemenite Dances !
hey deen, when you come to Israel, look for Me5olot Tayman club in Tel aviv ...some crazy yemenite dancing is going on there and zoin golan sings every Saturday night
