[HANASHIR:3481] Hebrew Question

Hi All,
I have a question. I am not sure what hanashir and hava nashirah mean.
Here's what I know: shir means song, nashir means we will sing, hava
means let us, hava nashira sounds much like hava nagilah which I also
can't translate. :(
So hava nashirah must mean let us sing but I can't explain the 'ah' at
the end. HELP!
Less useful things that I know: nashir also means diciduous, nashirah
means falling off or out as in leaves or hair. :)
Thanks,
Ruth
