TOMORROW

tomorrow, we might be sailing on the ships
from Eilat coast to the ivory coast
and on the old war-ships
they will load golden apples

ch: all this will is not an allegory and not a dream
it is as true as daylight
all this will come tomorrow if not today
and if not tomorrow then the day after

tomorrow perhaps in all the paths
a lion will lead the sheeps
tomorrow, a thousands clappers will hit
the festive bells

ch:...

tomorrow, when the army will take off their uniforms
our hearts will stand still ("attention!")
then, each one will build with his own two hands
whatever he dreamt today

Ch:all this will is not an allegory and not a dream
it is as true as daylight
all this will come tomorrow if not today
and if not tomorrow
and if not yet tomorrow
and if not yet tomorrow
then the day after
the day after

We Don't Need

our eyes are already dried from tears
and our mouth is dumb, voiceless
what else could we ask, say, what else
we have almost asked everything;

let the rain come down only on time
and in spring scatter flowers for us
and let him come back home again
we don't need more than this

we've already ached a thousand scars
deep inside we've hidden a sigh
our eyes are too dry to cry
say we've already passed the test

let the rain come only on time
and in spring scatter flowers for us
and let her be with him again
we don't need more than this

we've already coverd one hill and another
we burried our hearts among cypresses
soon the sigh will break through
accept it as a very personal pray;

let the rain come only on time
and in spring scatter flowers for us
and let us see him once again
we don't need more than this
