Sibilla, pseudonym of Sibyl Amarilli Mostert (born Zimbabwe, 14 April 1954), is an Italian singer, widely known for the song Oppio, that in the refrain, says Uru belev sameach (עורו אחים בלב שמח), a phrase that means Awake with a cheerful heart, taken from the text of the Hebrew folk song Hava Nagila.
