I found it. It's a Naomi Shemer song called Shabat (Sabbath). She was a brilliant song-writer. If I can find my Naomi Shemer book, I'll see if there aren't more verses.

îéìéí åìçï: ðòîé ùîø

ùîù ù÷òä, ù÷òä îòáø éí
éîé äçåì çìôå, çìôå åàéðí
åëåëáéí ùí áîøåí
éáøëå: ùáú ùìåí

Shemesh shaq'ah, shaq'ah me'ever yam
yemey hakhol khalfu, khalfu ve'einam
ve'kokhavim sham ba'merom
yevarkhu: shabat shalom.

The sun has set, set beyond the sea
the week days have passed, have passed and are gone
and the stars in the heavens
will bless: Shabat Shalom.

I've tried the links above, but neither one included this song. Thanks for continuing the search. I heard this song in Israel a few years back.

Thank you.

Nope, sorry. Don't know it, couldn't find it in hebrewsongs.com or zemerl. But I'll ask around.

Aloha,
Mark

Does anyone have a transliteration of the lyrics to a beautiful Hebrew shabbat song that begins "Shemesh Sha-kae-ah" and ends something like "Ve Kochavim sham, ba darom, yevarchu Shabbat Shalom"? Thanks so much.
