סַפְּרִי תַמָּה תְמִימָה סַפְּרִי נָגִיל בְּתֵימָא -
Tell me, innocent one, tell me, we will rejoice in innocence.
בַּת מְלָכִים הַחֲכָמָה אָן מְקוֹמֵךְ סַפְּרִי לִי
Daughter of wise kings, where is your hiding place? Tell me.
הָרְשׁוּת בֶּאֱמֶת נְתוּנָה לָךְ שְׁלוֹמַת הַחֲתֻנָּה
Permission has really been given, regards to You in your crowning.
אַל יְסִיתֵךְ צָר מְמֻנָּה בַּת וְאַל יַשִּׂיג גְּבוּלִי
Do not be swayed by cloaked enemies, Lass, and though You reach a frontier, look for its border.
The Jews of Yemen -
____________________________________
Yemenite Jewish poetry has been an integral part of Yemenite Jewish culture since time immemorial. The Jews of Yemen have preserved a well-defined singing arrangement which includes the very poetic creation itself also involves a vocal and dance performance, accompanied by drumming on an empty tin-can (tankah) or a copper plate.
The Jews of Yemen, maintaining strict adherence to Talmudic and Maimonidean halakha, observed the gezeirah which prohibited playing musical instruments and "instead of developing the playing of musical instruments, they perfected singing and rhythm.
The Jews of Yemen are one of the most isolated and forgotten communities of the Jewish people. This vibrant Jewish community lived in Yemen until the mid-20th century, when almost all the inhabitants emigrated from Yemen and settled in Israel. Yemeni Jewish traditions claim that the Jewish settlement goes back to biblical times.
Scholars are fascinated by 'Yemenite-accented' Hebrew, regarding it as a very close to the Hebrew of biblical times; the Yemenite were the only Jewish community to have lived continuously - and insulated - in one country for at least two and half thousand years.
This songs of Yemenite Jews divide into men's songs and women's songs. Men's songs are usually sunk in Hebrew and the women's songs always in Arabic
Men's songs come from the Diwan, a book of religious poetry and songs written mostly by the renowned Robbi shalom Shabazi in the Seventeenth century.
The Diwan's texts are laced with Biblical, Kabalist and often, sexual references - though today's Rabbis insists the references refer only to the love Israel
This collection was started in the eleventh century and has centered Jewish life ever since.
Women's songs in contrast are sung in every day Yemenite Arabic. Never taught to read or to write, women bared their souls in songs - their single outlet for passion in a rigid, conservative society.
They used flowery, Arabs verse for their hopeless flight into fantasy.
Yemenite girls were commonly forced to start married life as the second or third wife.
The women's songs are aching and sensual and often witty, angry and bitingly sarcastic.
