little bird, little bird waits for me on the horizon

Hi!
Anyone knows the song played by the end of the movie and during credits?
Here are the lyrics in English translation:

If the night is dark if the sea is stormy
Light a torch on the bow of the ship
If the pale playful sky and thin thread of dawn
Reach out to me with a warm hand mother
We will strenghten each others hearts
A golden canopy above us below us an abyss
Wave take me wave take me to the land of dreams
Enlighten me and don't ask me why
Little bird, little bird waits for me on the horizon.

I'd be grateful for details, thanks!

Maybe you've already found out the answers to all your questions already, but just in case, here's all the info I can provide you with:

The song is called Love Song to the Sea (in Hebrew: Zemer Ahava La'yam), lyrics by Rephael Eliaz, melody by Sasha Argov and it's been performed by four singers that I know of, the one rendition I'm most familiar with is Rammi Kleinstein's, but it was also performed by Arik Einstein, by Chava Alberstein and by Gidi Gov.

Thanks a lot! I enjoy the song in two interpretations so far. It's outstanding. The one used in "After" is performed by Chava Alberstein.

My pleasure. :) Chava is awesome, though I suspect that when you become familiar with a song at a very early age, different versions, despite being quite enjoyable, never seem to you like the "real" song. I was exposed to Rami's, so... :)
