Zum Gali Gali
Zum Gali Gali (Hebrew Hebrew: זום גלי גלי) is an Isreali folk song associated with the Kibbutz, Israel's collective agricultural communities. The song is sometimes referred to by the title Israeli Work Song and is known for its rhythmic style. The song begins with the repeated refrain ("zum gali gali") brefore proceding to the verses.[1] The repeated refrain itself is a nonsensical verse,[2] and has no direct translation into English.[3]
