BABUSTANIM Arik Lavi, Yigal Chared

Babustanim yored bo'er ha'erev

Betzel orot zocher bein ha'etzim

V'et dmutech ani ro'eh overet

Noga'at lo noga'at ba'alim

Ubashki'ah roshech zahav gove'a

Ushchor einayich

Ani kmo tzel elayich mitno'e'ah

Umerachok hatan bavadi meyalel

Ani kmo tzel elayich mitno'e'ah

Umerachok hatan bavadi meyalel

Ani kim'at noge'a bach lo noge'a

At iti vegam eineich kan

Veshuv at ne'elemet bachashecha

Ani otach beshemesh bustanim matzati

Ani ibadti otach im redet leil

Bachashecha ani nitzav mul kochavayich

Bein or rishon ani shuv eheye lach tzel

Bachashecha ani nitzav mul kochavayich

Bein or rishon ani shuv eheye lach tzel

IN THE ORCHARDS

In the orchards, the evening sets in flames

In the shadows of the lights I remember among the trees

And I see your image passing by

Touching, not touching the leaves

And in the sunset, your head is like fading gold

And the darkness of your eyes

embraces the darkness of the heart

I am like a shadow swaying toward you

And in the distance the jackal howls in the wadi

I am like a shadow swaying toward you

And in the distance the jackal howls in the wadi

I almost touch you, yet I don't touch you

You pass before me like a whisper

You are with me, yet you are not

And again you disappear into the darkness

I found you at sunlight in the orchards

I lost you at nightfall

In the darkness I stand facing your stars

At the first light, I will again be your shadow

In the darkness I stand facing your stars

At the first light, I will again be your shadow
