Dear All, I should have taken the trouble to look at past postings before asking for translation of Hava Nagilah, but in any case I am grateful for such a quick reply from Zemerl. It seems then that "Hava Nagilah" means "Let's Dance" - wasn't there a song of that name (was it by Chris Montez?). Regarding Mark Cohen's posting on 18th July 2000 below, Fred Wedlock also did this on an album although as all his songs were originally by others, I presume he heard Jo-Ann Worley or someone else sing it. Does anyone know what happened to Jo-Ann Worley? You see some of the ex-Laugh In People from time to time, especially Goldie Hawn, in films, etc, but I can remember seeing Henry Gibson, Artie Johnson, Lily Tomalin and Dick Rowan. Dan Rowan died some years back. wSubject: RE: Lyr Add: French Lyrics to Hava Nagila From: Mark Cohen - PM Date: 18 Jul 00 - 12:57 AM Thanks, Mrrzy, it's absolutely wonderful! I will learn it forthwith. (Maybe somebody can fix the accents--it took me a few seconds to figure out what happened.) Of course, who can forget JoAnne Worley on Laugh-In, singing: Hava nagila, have two nagilas Have three nagilas, they're very small
