A major focus of Yamma's music is the magical Hebrew language:

Hebrew language receives a place of honor in all its layers and periods.

It’s the only living Canaanite language left and the only truly successful example of a revived dead language.

It survived 3000 years into the medieval period as the language of Jewish liturgy, rabbinic literature intra- Jewish commerce, and poetry.

In the 19th century, it was revived as a spoken and literary language. It is alive and kicking even in the twenty-first century.

מול מפתן ביתי הסהר הצטחק- Mul miftan beiti hasahar hitstachek - Upon the threshold of my house the moon laughs
ערב רד ובאה חשיכה - Erev rad uba hachashicha - Night falls and darkness comes
מי לי בלילי - Mi li beleili - who is the one who appears at my night and at my early mornings?
אל חיקי אקרא אותך - El cheki ekra otcha - Into my bosom I call you

גם ימיי כלו - Gam yamai kalu - My days have also been used up
בשביל הנדודים - Bishvil hanedudim - In the wanderer's pathway
את חומך ביקשתי לי עד תום - Et chomcha bikashti li ad tom - Your warmth I sought until the end
מעין גנים תהיה לי בחיי - Ma'ayan ganim tihiye li bechayay - A spring of gardens you will be in my life
אור לנחמת היום - Or linachamat hayom - A light to comfort the day

מה אני ומה לי - Ma ani uma li - What am I and what is mine?
רוח מן הים נושקה פניי - Ruach min hayam noshka panai - Wind from the sea kisses my face
שב אני מיום עולי - Shav ani miyom oli - I return from my burdened day
גשם של ברכות טופף עליי - Geshem shel brachut tofef alai - A rainfall of blessing raps on me

זר של נרקיסים אניח לראשך - Zer shel narkisim aniach leroshech - A wreath of narcissus I'll lay on your head
ביכורי גני אותם אביא - Bikurei gani otam avi - The first fruits of my garden - I'll bring them
לבנה שוחקת כל הליל מול חלונך - Levana socheket kol halel mul chalonech - The moon laughs all night at your window
ועמה ריבוא הכוכבים - Veima ribui hakochavim - And with it the starry multitude
