Hey You

Hey you
no longer remember when we sat like this
many years ago, like on the bridge
that was written really from time past
 
Hey you
the tension and the embarrassment
it's certainly only in me, or also in you
it will take some time
 
How much did we hide, we gave up way to much
we feared then that we would lose
what that didn't work for many years already
how much that we preserved, how much we talked
just not about what was truly important
 
So certainly you understood
that there aren't causes, they are not built
from the materials we dreamt about
when we were so דם naive
 
Easy does it
we learned, you and me
that there are no winners here in the end
and no losers
 
How much did we hide, we gave up way to much
we feared then that we would lose
what that didn't work for many years already
how much that we preserved, how much we talked

How much did we love, we gave up way to much
we feared then that we would lose
what that didn't work for many years already
how much that we preserved, how much we talked

Close To Your Heart

I want to put down my wandering stick
a turn and another twist
a trek and another wandering
in the end surely we remain alone
without a shadow without a Sukkah1
falling from every blow
so come and feed me until the last drop of the potion
that i will be spellbound and will stop the pursuit
 
I returned, thought only about this
only about a pair of lips that kiss me
i came close to your heart
until you will say - remain with me
 
I want to put down my wandering stick
a trek and another wandering
i crossed the border between
a mere amusement to losing my mind
now my heart is hungry, so try and come close
kiss me, feed me until the last drop of the potion
that i will be spellbound and will stop the pursuit

Good Morning Child

Good morning to the child I love. Good morning!
The sun’s rays are stealing into the street
And before the day erupts in its glory
Let’s talk – man to man
 
You learn to walk
Step after step, fall and then
Cry a little, forget, getup, and hold on
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of steps
will be larger than
The number of failures
This way is best
 
You begin to speak
A full sentence quietly, smile
A few words in reverse order
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of sentences
will be larger than
The number of silences
Also to be silent is good
 
Now I am done
You lay your head down breathing slowly
Close your eyes in trust,
No longer see the dangers.
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of hugs
will be larger than
The number of abandonments.
This is worthwhile and good.
Rest your head
Always this is best.
 

Many Faces

Sometimes the wind is good
And the hot sun touches my face
Sometimes the world is beautiful
And there is no one in the world
that could compare to me
In one moment I change
The fears flow, again I hate
Dark days, scorched fields
And the end does not show
 
Chorus/Pizmon:
I have many faces
And sometimes, I fear
Like everyone, I could get hurt and fall
Many faces
Waves waves, in a raging sea
I return to the beach line, the better one
In my heart, I do not give up
 
There is a place from within me
that only from the echo of your voice
all of it turns around in whirls
There is a dream, many days I go after you
Sit in the desert
Suddenly without a reason I shatter
And then everyone who sees burts
The fears rise, lost days
Pass with pain
 
Chorus/Pizmon...
 

Apples and Dates

If you go to the market
You'll see her crying
A pretty woman amid the fruit
Taking out another handkerchief
 
The sellers yell to her
What's wrong sweetheart?
It's my love that doesn't want me
He's found a young girl
 
Here, take some apples and dates
Sweeten your day
He's not worth the pain
that is stirring in your heart.
 
She loves the man
That doesn't love her
A flowery dress,
Cheeks like lilies,
Aren't enough for you
 
You want a poster girl
With no life experience
You want a young girl
Frozen and without wrinkles
 
Here, take some apples and dates
Sweeten your day
He's not worth the pain
That's stirring in your heart
 
And she waits here
Among the market stands
For you want this lover
Only when it suits you
 
Here, take some apples and dates
Sweeten your day
He's not worth the pain
That's stirring in your heart
