NOTES [47 words]: Cray-AshGrove implies that this is a popular song in Israel brought to the United States by Sol Gold, who added two verses. But if it is popular in Israel, I can find no hint of it on the web, at least as transcribed in Cray-AshGrove (in the Roman rather than the Hebrew alphabet). - RBW
