Lyrics translations:
From Arabic:
Your moving body, oh my life,
perfect, like a young branch.
In my eyes, you’re the prettiest,
blessed be your creator, oh my moon.
From Hebrew:
Between the rivers Euphrates and Tiger
A palm tree stands tall on the hill
Between the branches of the palm tree
Lives a golden bird
Oh golden bird, fly! Circle above!
Go and seek my spouse
What should you say to him?
Say my soul goes out to my beloved
