I'm looking for music in the languages above or similar languages, preferably with a prominent female singer. Flowing, chanting style of singing. Bollywood singers do it all the time, but there are about forty million Bollywood films and soundtracks so I don't even know where to begin there.
Something like this?
Shlomit Levi, doing some Yemenite chanting for Orphaned Land

waaaaaaaash cycccccleee

Mmm, so you want artists with that particular musical "arabic-sounding"-style as well or just
singers that sing in those languages? Dunno much about those, but this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxCoL3Haj0E) (Laleh) babe sings
in persian (I think it's persian >_>) in a few of her songs.
Haven't heard her first album, but it's suposed to have more persian than her other albums.
I'd also recommend Powerslave with Maiden, but they have a male singer so meh :P
edit
Also I may be way off here, but how about this?
edit2 (lol sorry)
Above was wrong "band" I had in mind I think. Just youtube "Taraf De Haidouks". Dunno if they have any singers though.

That's not exactly what I'm looking for but it is awesome.
I guess just any sort of flowing chanting style like that, yeah. A lot of Bollywood songs seem to do it, but I have no idea where to even begin on that front. I'd look for more Shlomit Levi but this is all I can find.
Edit: Sorry I am terrible at describing music.

Lol I'm even worse, so we're in the same boat here :P
Guess I wasn't too much help hehe, but there'll probably pop up some GWer who's totally into this kind of music *wink wink* who will gladly help.

this is more traditional music lemme think a bit, or ask my mom. if you want that minimalist guitar stuff NOPE.

I dont actually have that much music in arabic, hebrew or hindi.
I would imagine of the three I have the most in arabic because of some folk music stuff and nusrat singing abunch of arabic poetry sometimes (I have 3 gigs of nusrat on my computer). but yeah I'm not much into hebrew language music and the only hindi shit that I like is like "dam maro dam (hare krishna hare dam)" type psychedelic/fusion shit so yeah
now if you were looking for north african, turkish, kurdish, iranian or turkic music I have untold amounts of that and I can point you in directions of things I dont myself have but I know where to find

You might like Idan Raichel... at least this song anyway (it's much better than most of his other songs)
Right around 1:35 is where the magic really starts.
