about:
Some sing it between Minchah (afternoon prayer) of Friday and the beginning of Kabbalat Shabbat (literally: receiving or greeting the Sabbath—a collection of psalms usually sung to welcome in the Shabbat queen, as it were, the restful contentment that descends from above during nightfall on Friday).

It is sung by many Jews during Seudah Shlishit (the third meal on Shabbat; the first is on Friday night, the second on Saturday lunch, and the third on Saturday before nightfall).

Many Chassidim say or sing it every morning before beginning to the Pesukei dezimra section of Shacharit in order to arouse their love of God in preparation for the praises of Pesukei dezimra.

This poem is commonly attributed to the sixteenth century Sephardic kabbalist, Rabbi Elazar ben Moshe Azikri (1533-1600)
Azikri's philosophy centred around the intense love one must feel for God, a theme that is evident in this piyyut
The first letters of each of the four verses make up the four letter name of God, known in English as the tetragrammaton.

yishttaḥave mul hadarekha, to bow before Your majesty; יִשְׁתַּחֲוֶה מוּל הֲדָרֶךָ‎
kee ye'erav lo yedidotekha, to him Your friendship will be sweeter כִּי יֶעֱרַב לוֹ יְדִידוֹתֶךָ‎

anna el na refa na lahh, Please, O God, heal her now אָנָּא אֵל נָא רְפָא נָא לָהּ‎
beharot lahh no'am zivakha, by showing her the pleasantness of Your radiance; בְּהַרְאוֹת לָהּ נֹעַם זִיוֶךָ‎
az teetiḥazzeiq v'teetrapei, then she will be strengthened and healed, אָז תִּתְחַזֵּק וְתִתְרַפֵּא‎
