@ibmabimeon tehilim perek mem hey

[Dessybaby1233]

THIS SONG IS SO PRETTY :) 

[lilmissjewtuber]

u mustve been really bored!!!!!!! lol

[mordy777]

Thank you so much, what a wonderful song :)

[stars1836]

did you hear shal 5, they a track that sounds similar to this on there

[FRYrebecky]

Beautiful song :)

I go more with sefardic style music, but this song is simply gorgeous :)

[oilslick13]

awsome!!!!!!!!

[habbsterr]

Awesome song.

Shalsheles 5 is amazing!

[hbvejhy]

amazing

[stars1836]

beautiful song

[saxophonemn]

I like the Metallica progression. Tizmoret ruined the song, but A.K.A pella did a really cool cover. This and Ashira are my favorites on this album. Sov, is the way to go, it can be proved because when a sov is next to a tzadik it becomes a tet, because it's impossible to say mistza'er.

[KyuchiBeri]

Wonderful song. I just have one question: What does "yofyafisa" mean?

[Brooque613]

@KyuchiBeri The word "yofyafisa" comes from the root word "yafeh" which means beauty. The song comes from psalm 45:3 and is all in Hebrew. In this usage, the word is used as "you are the most beautiful".

A breakdown of the song is as follows:

Yofyafisa - you are the most beautiful

Mi b'nei adam - of all the men

Hutzak chen b'sifsosecha - grace is poured upon your lips

Al ken - therefor

Berachicha Elokim - God has blessed you

L'olam - forever

Hope that helps!

:o)

[KyuchiBeri]

@Brooque613 Thank you so much. I appreciate your translation a lot :)

[Brooque613]

@KyuchiBeri My pleasure! Glad I could help. =)

[gavers23]

@Brooque613 it SHOULD be pronounced yafya'Fi-TA. beautiful one (feminine)

so should Sif-to-tai-cha and not sifsosecha.

[Brooque613]

@gavers23 It's all semantics. I mean, the pronunciation really depends on whether you're using the Israeli or the ashkenazi pronunciation.

Also, the psalm is written in male format not female format.

[jwalk126]

@Brooque613 And if it were Yemenite it would be "Yof-ya-fi-THa"

[jwalk5747]

@gavers23 Actually if we are going to say how it SHOULD be pronounced, we might as well do it like the Yemenites. Therefore it would be Yofyafitha.

[brur37]

@gavers23 Why? The singers are all of Ashkenazik descent!

[jwalk5747]

@brur37 Chaim Block looks like he might be Sfardi.

[rlymyers]

Different dialects pronounce the tav as a "t" sound versus an "s" sound.

[kyoishmine]

I totally love this song! I'm Jew-ISH! :P Im starting to learn more Hebrew, and I hope in due time I will be able to understand this song. :)

[Brooque613]

lol Yup, it's just one of those songs that's so pleasant, you could listen to it over and over. =D

By Jew-ish, you mean.... Jewish but raised not Jewish?

:o)

[kyoishmine]

i'm not jewish actually. I'm a gentile who loves jewish things. :)

[Brooque613]

That's so interesting. Are you thinking about converting or becoming a noahide or something?

:o)

[kyoishmine]

Um, I consider myself Messianic. :) I mean, if I'm going to live the bible from Alpha to Omega, and these things are Jewish things, then so be it! The Lord chose Israel above all other nations, so I shall pray for the peace of Yerushalayim and follow the ways of Him.

[mercurio5]

no

al menos de que

habla la cancion que tema dice gracias y shalom

[Brooque613]

¡Oh!

La canción es de los Salmos. 45:3 - las palabras son: 45:3 - the words are: "Eres el más hermoso de los hijos de los hombres; La gracia se derramó en tus labios; Por tanto, Dios te ha bendecido para siempre."

En hebreo: יָפְיָפִ֡יתָ מִבְּנֵ֬י אָדָ֗ם ה֣וּצַק חֵ֭ן בְּשְׂפְתֹותֶ֑יךָ עַל־כֵּ֤ן בֵּֽרַכְךָ֖ אֱלֹהִ֣ים לְעֹולָֽם

¿Es útil?

:o)

[gavers23]

@Brooque613 I've been wondering what the words were... It's so hard to understand the Ashkenazis pronunciation. (especially when you live in Israel and only hear sefardik)

תודה

[mercurio5]

LA LETRA EN ESPAÑOL

TODA RABA

[Brooque613]

Lo siento. No lo entiendo. Usted quiere que yo traducir todas las palabras?

La canción? "Yofyafisa" por Shalsheles.

[levvvvvvv7]

what program did u use to create "Video"?? my fave song :) thanks!

[Brooque613]

lol My pleasure!

I used Windows Movie Maker. It came with my computer and I was bored. XD

Thanks for the comment!

:o)

[mlojdsa1]

OMG! I feel so proud to be a Jew! LOL, that was random but I just wanted to say that...

Sometimes when I listen to these cute (alright...GESHMAK) Jewish songs-I feel so proud! My grandparents always tell me over stories from the HOLOCAUST-and they say how Hitler's dream was to totally eliminate anything considered JEWISH! That includes Jewish songs! And now look at us..we're talking about how much we enjoy listening to this JEWISH SONG! This is exactly what he didn't want! Remember that guys!

[Brooque613]

lol I totally agree with that!

Hitler (yemach shemo) did want to obliterate anything remotely Jewish, and here we are flaunting it in a totally public place!

Definitely a happy moment in Jewish history. =)

Thanks for commenting!

:o)

[melninful]

@mlojdsa1

[ibmabimeon]

@mlojdsa1

[stars1836]

I enjoy this song a lot too, and the song ashira

[Brooque613]

Oh, yeah! That's also a really good song. =D

:o)

[phantomlabyrinth]

Best song EVER!!!

[Brooque613]

YUP! It makes me happy every time I hear it! And it reminds me of my friend in Chicago who was the one who got me obsessed with it, so that makes me even happier!

lol Thanks for the comment!

:o)

[jwalk126]

[becas94]

Thanks for the comment!

:o)

[FeivelJay770]

This is my favorite song on the album! I also really like Kel Hakovod. Hope your sedarim were wonderfully uplifting, a gutten moed.

[Brooque613]

Hey! Mine too! My sister thought I was insane when I told her that song was the reason I was buying the CD! =D

I think the whole CD is great - Kel Hakavod is definitely a really good one too; but Yofyafisa is #1! ...even though it's #5.

Baruch HaShem, my sedarim were incredible! I hope yours were, too!

A gutten moed!

:o)
