  • Zionism = fascism =communism

    We have nothing against Jewish people!

    But Zionism is dangerous like any other forms of racism> Sorry to educate you here. The song is really great!

  • @SunriseNYC All committed Jews who are committed to Judaism as it has been practiced for 3400 years are Zionists. So you are the pig here. You see Ofra is singing about the reunification of Jerusalem in Jewish hands after over 2000 years. So you are liking a truly Zionist song.

  • @dovbearbarleib Great comment. Thank you.

  • @SunriseNYC And arabinism; - not dangerous?? A writer has to have round o'clock police protection for writing a book!!!!

  • @TheosNomos Amen!!

    God bless you!

  • This video brought me to tears because of Ofra's beautiful voice which has now been silenced by the dreadful disease of AIDS. Shalom aleichem, Ofra.

  • I am proud I was there

    I am not a Jew but I like Israel and I like the Arabs too! I got many friends on both sides and I hope we love each other.

    Sholom and Salam to all of you .

    Ukrainian from NYC!

  • @Clof1959 My Dearest Brothers Bob, Robby, Cole and Parker..

    One of my beloved songs , performed by a beloved singer by me. You really have choosen a right song for a special dedication. Thanks from my heart.

    I think the late Ofra made a great and emotional cover of this song. May she rest in peace and be well remembered. I sure will do so.

    This song is in my Ofra-PL, wich PL needs more attention from me...

    Love, peace and sunshine to You Four.

    And a long life.

    Hugs and Kisses,

    Mannes.

  • @mepmug01 Thank you. Ofra had a beautiful voice and it is so sad that it was silenced. You can tell she loved Jerusalem from the heart.!

  • @rjburton2004

    Thanks so much for Your Reply...

    You are in My Heart.

    Why???

    Just because You are Who You are.....

    Sunshine and Kisses.

    Your Brother Mannes.

  • She has the most beautiful voice. I've been a fan since 1989.

  • pace -from romania -- iubesc jerusalim ..cetatatea sfinta

  • שיר מדהים קול מדהים

  • This is an incredible song the emotions it brings me are amazing and i dont even speak ivrit..

  • I am a fan of Ofra for 3 years.Although looking back I did see her live on tv in 1983 eurovision.

    She should have won.No singer like her.

    Also Psalm 87 is another favouite of mine.Yahweh loves His city founded on the holy mountain.He prefers the gates of Zion to any town in Jacob.He has glorious predictions to make of you city of God or as another version,Glorious things are spoken of thee city of God

    selah.

    v5 But all call Zion 'Mother'.It is HE who makes her what she is.

  • Ofra Haza,a truly beautiful daughter of Jerusalem.May God give a special place in the new Jerusalem that comes down from Heaven when He puts all wrongs to right in true Shalom.

    I love the sentiments expressed in Psalms of ascents120 to134. For instance.125v1.Those who trust in Yahweh are like Mount Zion,unshakeable,standing for ever and ever.Jerusalem encircled by mountains as Yahweh encircles his people now and for always.

    Also 129v5 May those who hate Zion be blasted by wind like roof grass.

  • @TheosNomos If he helps you to be decent, more power to you. Continue being decent for that is what matters most to G-d. And if Jesus is your key, that is fine with me.

  • shalom a la tierra de nuestro padre Abraham... Abraham padre bendicho LUZ DE ISRAEL

  • i know one thing the LORD GOD love Israel, specially Jerusalem.

  • breath taking music video. wish to know what she sing all about.....

  • How did i get here from cat videos

  • @Karmakameleeon

    Cat videos... I was watching Sisters of Mercy & the Mission, and managed to get here, where is here anyway?

  • I truly love and support Israel. And I pray, that both our countries will have diplomatic relations. Love, Malaysia.

  • 100 people dont know why they pressed the dislike button.

  • @shpikieboy1 The 101 people who hate this video are so filled with hate that there is no cure for how incredibly evil they are. Maybe they should get a running start as they collectively jump off a cliff. This song is probably one of the five greatest songs written in the 20th Century sung indisputably by the woman with the 20th Century's most incredible singing voice. G-d bless Ofra in the Highest Heaven.

  • @dovbearbarleib God bless Israel, the jews and the land of God.

    Are you a Jew?

  • @shpikieboy1 Yes, but I would say it even if I were not. One just has to be decent to figure out from whence the hate comes.

  • @dovbearbarleib I am not a jew but love Israel and the jews who are the chosen people of God. God bless the jews through which He gave the Holy Scritpture to the world.

  • This was the song Schindler's Jews were singing at the end of Schindler's List.

  • Shalom Aleykchem B'Shem HaMelekh. Sha-alu Shalom Jerusalem.

  • AM ISRAEL JAI! ORGULLOSO DE SER JUDIO - ORGULLOSO DEL ESTADO DE ISRAEL

  • such a beautiful song,i love this song actually we sing it every time we worship ABIYNU YAHWEH...shalom to israel...i know most of the people hate israel do they know that it is writen in the romans 11:26 that all israel shall be saved..

  • mankind +

  • mankin more important any city ... israel sing for city and kill people who live in the city !!!

  • @kuwaitstory Um do you have any statistics to prove your claim? Given that Jerusaelm has a 65% Jewish majority. This would mean that 65% of the population is murdering 30- 35% of the population. Do you have actual numbers?

  • @dovbearbarleib

    if u give me usa support and weapon i will make muslim majority in rome !!! i didnt spake about jewish i spake about people came from africa,yamen,iraq and europe stole the land from Palestinians !!

  • @kuwaitstory The Jewish majority in recent times has existed since 1840. For information purposes I am not including the ancient and medieval ties of Jews to Jerusalem. All the homes and apartments were built, bought, and paid for. For decades the only people in Jerusalem living outside the walls of the Old City were Jews. Silwan is such an example. Of all people Mark Twain in 1867 took pictures of Silwan where 9 or 11 homes in total are seen in the photos.

  • @kuwaitstory Between 1890 and 1920, Silwan became a bustling Jewish neighborhood connecting the Old City to the Mt. of Olives. Yes, most of those Jews were from Yemen, but before they showed up, Silwan was an empty hill. Thank G-d for photographs from the 1860s to prove that. By the 1930s Arabs had moved in, and The British could no longer guarantee the safety of the Jews from Yemen. So they left to save their lives getting not one pound from their homes.

  • @dovbearbarleib

    do u said israel didnt take jews from their homelands (africa yamen iraq eurpe ) to settle in Jerusalem While throwing Palestinians out of the city ?!!

  • @kuwaitstory You Arab invaders will pay. You are biggest occupiers in all of Israel, Mesopotamia, Africa. The Jews have returned to their ancient land. If "Palestinians"= Jordanians want to live with us in PEACE, they CAN, if they want to keep killing, suicide bombing, killing Jews and their own people, then they can leave. Free Israel, Africa, Assyrians from Arab invaders. Hahaha 99 Fakestinian swines passed here envying our culture. Gotta love the haters like they say :)

  • @YehudaMizrahi Jewish is someone who follows the religion of judiasm,so anyone can be a jew even a arab(ofra hazis one of them) and arabs didnt invade,the language just take over and then people called themselves arab afterwards.If you give their land back they will give you peace.You are a disgrace to all jewish people.

  • @thelegendarylord Read buddy. Jews: An ETHNO-RELIGIOUS group of people whom practice Judaism and descend from the Hebrews" How did the Jews arrive in Yemen? A group of HEBREWS migrated there during the time of King Solomon. We aren't Arab, our Hebrew ancestors migrated there and LIVED there among Arabs for many years, like Armenians. Ofra Haza is a MIZRAHI JEW like me, not Arab. The Arabs did invade the land Native to Jews (Bani Israil) and to Samaritans in 636 AD. It's in Islamic sources too.

  • @YehudaMizrahi Yes you are correct a group of hebrews arrived in yemen and they converted some of the natives living there as well as mixed with them.The arabic language then took over and then they called themselves arab because they spoke it.You're trying to tell me that Its impossible for any arab to be jewish.

  • @thelegendarylord I agree with you even "Palestinians" are really descendants of Arabized Jews but their blood is Hebrew like ours, that's why many of them look more like us, than Saudi Arabians. An Arab Muslim with Jewish ancestry can be called an Arab Jew (from both cultures), but the proper term for us Jews today is Mizrahi Jews. Remember, not all Arabs mixed with Jews, I know my family didn't, Many Jews from the Middle East refused to mix with non-Jews.

  • @YehudaMizrahi Yes thats exactly what I am saying but you must remember that a arab is only someone who speaks arabic as his native language so a hebrew could've started speaking Arabic and past that language down to his family then they would be known as arabs.Really glad that you agree with me about thisMay I ask what country are your from,if you dont mind me asking.

  • @thelegendarylord Oh but I thought Arabs were also a separate ethnicity (Arabian tribes from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Yemen) Well I'm from Israel, my family are native to Hebron. My family are the remaining 10% of Jews who were not exiled like the Samaritans.

  • @YehudaMizrahi NO what are you talking about,even the people in the Arabian peninsula didn't call themselves arabs until they started speaking the language and you can clearly tell that Levant Arabs and Arabians are not ethnically the same.

  • @thelegendarylord Oh now I get what you mean. You are right it says Arabs are a panethnicity group, they all come from different ethnicities. I get it now. Thanks.

  • @YehudaMizrahi So you were making fun of arabs all this time when you didnt even know what they really were,how old you are by the way.You seem pretty young

  • @thelegendarylord It doesn't matter they are Arabs now, the Arabs from Saudi Arabia (Ishmaelites) are the original Arabs today by language and ethnicity. It's because of this racist Arab nationalism why there are Jews problems throughout the Middle East and Africa.

  • @YehudaMizrahi Arab Nationalism significantly increased since the state of Israel was created but I honestly dont care about all this crap and arguing.Jewish problems in the middle east started when the Zionists had come to be.

  • @thelegendarylord Arab Nationalism was even worse back then. Excuse me? Um who tried to Arabize the Native Assyrians since the 1700's, the Kurds, Chaldeans etc. No it's more like since Israel was created nations besides Israel liberated themselves from Arab Occupation and it's racist nationalism (Ex.South Sudan, Kurdistan) soon Assyrians. The real problem is Arabs,you are just a ignorant bias.

  • @YehudaMizrahi Whatever I'm tired of arguing,what we are speaking is nonsense.

  • @thelegendarylord Whatever.

  • @YehudaMizrahi "Whatever"--If you were just gonna respond with that one word,then there was no point in responding.

  • @thelegendarylord Whatever indeed there is no point in you responding....

  • @YehudaMizrahi No actually there was a point in replying since I was writing a sentence and not just one word,We got out point across so lets just stop arguing.

  • @thelegendarylord Whatever and sure ok.

  • @thelegendarylord

    Zionists did nothing to you, stop whining

  • @thelegendarylord Eretz Israel was given by G-d to the Jews, Arabs want to drive Jews into the sea and have said this time after time, is this your definition of peace?

  • @YehudaMizrahi I feel so disappointed in reading all of these hateful comments geared towards one another. Why can't people just stop commenting and listen to the beautiful words of Ofra Haza?

  • @Roisia

    B/c Jew haters are INSANE

  • @ugha323a ANYONE who hates SOMEONE for something as insignificant as culture is insane, and this includes people who hate Jewish people AND people who hate Arabs.

  • @Roisia

    No one hates Arabs, but any sane person would hate Muslims

  • @kuwaitstory So if you want to send 300 million Arabs to Jerusalem to squat on Jewish owned property, see how far G-d lets you do that. Your time of lies is coming to a close.

  • @dovbearbarleib

    i can buy house in london but that doesnt mean i own the city and throw bartanin out of city !!! This is what happened to the Palestinians exactly ... Believe me, the Palestinians will return to their homeland : )

  • @kuwaitstory Check your Arab history, "Palestinians" were invented in 1964 as a political ployby the Arab League.

  • @kuwaitstory

    There is no place called p-stine

  • I as of now love listening to people sing in hebrew; especially Ofra Haza!

  • shalom....from Malaysia....such spirit filled song.....full of hope....and future events to come and happen!...very very soon!

  • Lot's of support for Israel from Argentina. Que Viva Argentina. Que Viva Israel.

  • legea in monitorul oficial )si noi o platim cu 324 lei /MW celor care au "preluat" liniile de transport energie "facute de comunisti" adica de parintii nostri. Sau apa si canalizarile construite de aceeasi oameni, acum sunt "luate " de mutlinationale care stabilesc pretul "pierderilor. SI NOI NE CERTAM SI INJURAM PE AICI. Sau petrolul romanesc... Stim cu totii de ce traim prost , dar doar putini fac cate ceva sa nu mai fie asa. Tu ce ai facut anul asta ?

  • . Si pe urma, peste cativa ani , ne vom plange ca nu reusim sa avem bani la buget pentru pensii, salarii bugetare, sistem de sanatate si educatie ,investitii nationale. "Muntii nostri aur poarta, noi..." si ne dam destepti. Dar nu e suficient , chiar daca suntem cum credem. Trebuie sa NE DEMONSTRAM asta. Cati dintre noi stiu ca energia electrica este produsa cu pretul de 200 lei/MW ( vedeti legea in monitorul oficial )

  • Miscari ale maselor de genul celor de la OWS nu ne sunt pe plac majoritatii oamenilor, pentru ca e usor sa astepti sa faca altii pentru mine in timp ce eu "sunt foarte destept si stiu toate raspunsurile". Inclusiv la noi, in Romania...Primul exemplu care-l amintesc este actiunea " Salvati Rosia Montana" , despre care ne place sa credem ce auzim in reclamele televizate, dar nu ne-am interesat nici 1 minut ce este aceasta actiune, interzisa realmente in media.

  • @Ahmedxxy I believe it is yerushalayim shel zahav

  • Can anyone help me out? I'm looking for an Ofra Haza song that's mildly upbeat, and people start clapping in the background everytime she reaches the chorus. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? :/

  • @Didleeios88 Israel's 50th Anniversary extravaganza in the Spring of 1998, about two years before Ofra died of Aids because her husband shared drug needles. Boy is she missed.

  • Не знаю что поёт и не понимаю но понимаю что голос очень красивый.

  • Beautiful song; enormous voice; resounding in infinitely and in eternity!!

  • can anyone write the lyrics of the song and the translation too?? it will be very kind if someone will do it.....thx

  • A voz de Israel plena de paz e entendimento.

  • I dont how she does it. Her voice brings me to tears nearly everytime. She projects a pure soul. Bless her soul. We lost a great singer and human being.

  • מתגעגעים אלייך! עופרה.למה את הרעים לא לוקחים?!

  • IZRAEL IS NOT DEFENDING

  • Lovely

    

  • I miss her too

  • To all: Remeber that no religion did bring any good! But you can't say that Isreal, defending it self, does that due to there religion.Even if you do'nt agree whit the things they do, it does not mean that there religion is bad. Áctualy its the only religion who has no intention to convert you. I am not religious but if i had to be........this would be the best one. I Love there music and the joy it brings. Thx.

  • I've recorded a version of this beautiful song in Hebew, Spanish, Arabic and English as tribute to Ofra! PEACE to the World - Leah Chaye

  • Now that the 9th of Av has come and gone when we commemorate the destruction of both Temples and Jerusalem, it is good to hear Ofra's voice about the rebuilding of Jerusalem. This is the true Audacity of Hope because the Temple will soon be rebuilt.

  • @dovbearbarleib shalom ani gam ken roste livnot et the temple. we all should occupy the area south of al aksa take out and sift all the dirt for relics then build a tall wall east to west using insulating concrete forms so it cannot be destroyed, then the temple

  • i am not too tender, normally i listen to reaaally heavy music but to be honest, this is the first song, which while listening truly made me cry. i mean REALLY, i don't know if i have heard something more beautiful before.

  • @sweetiedarling69 me too,i even listen to ac/dc sometimes! this song is very old,my mother loved it back in the 70'and i love it in the 21'century,many people have been strongly touched by this song.It has a message of peace and love and i think everyone needs that nomatter how tough you might be.Peace:)

  • I want to write one more comment on here and that is we should all just be listening to a lovely voice and not get involved in other things.

  • @PURPLEBEATTIE1 that is exactly the reason i put this up

  • @infinatias Thank you. I have no intention of inolving myself in any arguement.as some people would like because this is certainly not the platform for political or religious beliefs.I simply want to highlight the beauty of this singer internally and vocally. Its been a long time since I have enjoyed a womans voice such as rhw voice of Ofra Haza.Thank you for posting her video

  • @PURPLEBEATTIE1 By necessity all moral discussions are religious in nature soley because all morality descends from G-d. To draw a moral equivalance between the perpetrators of the Holocaust and those who would deny the Arabs their 23rd state for purposes of survival, requires a moral response, which as noted above involves mentioning G-d. The aesthetics of listening to the greatest female recorded voice of the 20th century, Ofra Haza's voice, is besides the point. I rest my case. RIP Ofra

  • @infinatias I write with a lump in my throat and much thanks

  • @PURPLEBEATTIE1 I do agree with you, Ofra is great. Thanks to infinatias, sorry if i offended anyone. It's been since '72 that I heard Ofra sing it. Thanks to you tube....Let's let music help make a more peaceful world.

  • @budhempfeld No problem my friend you did not offend anyone

  • @PURPLEBEATTIE1 thanks- i'm glad we're cool

    are you in scotland ? i visited st andrews once

  • @budhempfeld Yes I am .St Andrews is a nice little town with 2 very famous things, a great university and of course its golf course

  • @ThePissedoffant Well either you are or i am, And given that im eating a giant plate of white rice i would say i am now the idiot.

  • @ThePissedoffant Very wise words.

  • @ThePissedoffant That is all well and good that you guys were having and understanding of sorts perhaps you guys can find a video that discusses the topics you were touching on rather than a song that is just simply beautiful.

  • @ThePissedoffant just stirring the pot until someone came along and exploded, believe me. I've had to delete respectful conversations that turned into shouting matching so many times.

  • @ThePissedoffant The fighting back and forth between all of you, stop it one person say something you don't agree with and you feel entitled to state your opinion forgetting that they will not agree and wont change their mind based on what a person who they don't know says. So stop trying to change peoples mind on youtube, It is similar to trying to teach an old dog new tricks, the saying goes... you just cant do it.

  • @SiegfriedSeks...and in the news the world can see what you are doing. have a nice day. and many greetings to all humans they learned

  • @infinatias,,, you know what? youre right. i dont hate nothing. and i dont know why waste my time here

  • sadly i have to come here month after month to delete hatred of jews or muslims or any other faith... you're all idiots.

  • Love this song!

  • Is this a rehersal or it's the repeatition of it ?

    Jews are crazy, except for the rabbis they're all normal :).

  • the second that sound comes out of her mouth I can feel the chills
