This is a shira for any occasion, with a tawshiḥ. It is attributed both to David ben Zecharia Halevi and to Sa'adia. Alternate stanzas are in Hebrew and Arabic.
This recording features Menachem Arussi and the Kiryat Ono male ensemble sing the first and third stanzas, and the end of the third, all in Hebrew. From the second verse of each stanza they sing in a responsorial manner: the soloist sings the opening hemistich, and the ensemble responds with the closing hemistich.
