Tziyyon ha-lo tishali
Tziyyon ha-lo tishali (Hebrew: צִיּוֹן הֲלֹוא תִשְׁאֲלִי, lit. 'Zion, do you not inquire'), also transcribed Siyyon ha-lo' Tishaliy, is a Hebrew-language poem composed by Judah Halevi (c. 1075–1141), one of the most prominent Jewish poets of medieval Spain. The poem is part of a group known as the "Zion poems," which express longing for the Land of Israel. The poem became a model for later Hebrew poetry both in structure and theme and entered the liturgy of some communities.
