Sapri Li Ahuva (Tell me, beloved) by one of my fave Israeli singers, Dindin Aviv.
For those who don't understand Hebrew, here is a transliteration (courtesy hebrewsongs.com):
Tell me beloved, with your beautiful eyes
What does your heart desire?
Tell me child, beautiful in my dream
How will I wake you up for the day?Day, another night, and a day
I am awake and my heart is asleep
What I used to be is gone
From all the has passed it seems
Only when you are with me
My heart is playing a melodyThe one loved by your soul
I looked for all over the city
Locked garden you are
Open it for me, soft-eyed beloved
Open your door for me
