I am a Muslim. I trully love this song from the TNK in Hebrew. It is so similar to Arabic.

there is more to the story below......)

And how do you know my story is true?? the story below that RShlomo Carlebach risked his life to cross enemy lines and sing and dance with a group of soldiers weary and tired from war? Because look at how this song has transcended boundaries. Who of what Jewish backround does not love this song? Even a man of different faith (Muslim) said he liked this song. So, in the name of transcending boundaries, let there be peace, for no side is right, and no side is wrong, just let there be PEACE!!!!!

' ha' nosen la' ya'ef ko'ach' - I know that Reb Shlomo with this song emulated Hashem in giving the weary strength, because R' Shlomo passed over enemy lines in the middle of the Yom Kippur to sing and restore life to a group of battle weary soldiers who had not seen sleep in 48 hours. How do I know this ? Because my father saw it with his own eyes, and danced a storm with R' Shlomo to Esa Einai in the middle of the Egyptian Desert, in the middle of a warzone, broken souls dancing to the heavens
