lyrics

היום התעוררתי
לקול הרחוב ההומה, המלא אדם,
מנופף בדגליו

תפילתי
היא עולה לרקיע
והופכת ענן
נוצה קלה ושברירית
המרחפת
מעל חומות עירי

מצפון
מתקדרים השמיים
ואפשר להרגיש
שמתקרבת סערה
בתוך הבית
קצת חשוך וקר


המבול שייפול עלינו
מכה וזועף
ישטוף מכאן שנאת חינם
ארבעים ימים הוא יכה כאן ללא רחם
עד ששוב תזרח השמש הטובה
ואז נגלה
שאין צרים ואין צורר
ויפלו החומות
והארץ תשקוט

ותוקא הרעה
ויכולו המים
והנגע יסור
והקשת תקשט את השמיים
ויישב איש בעמו
ולא ילמדו עוד מלחמה
ונתמלא לב חדש
ורוח חדשה

ונרדוף שלום

ואז התעוררתי
לקול גרגורה של יונה
לבנת כנף
על מפתן חלוני

Translation:

Title: New Spirit

Today I woke up
To the bustling street noise, full of people,
Waving their flags.

My prayer Rises to the sky
And turns into a cloud,
A light and fragile feather,
That floats Above the walls of my city.

From the north The heavens are rising,
And you can feel That a storm is approaching.
Inside the house, It's a bit dark and cold.

The flood that will fall upon us
Is striking and furious,
Washing away baseless hatred.

Forty days it will strike here without mercy, Until once again the good sun will rise,
And then we'll discover
That there are no enemies and no oppressors, And the walls will fall,
And the earth will abide in peace.
Evil will be eradicated,
The waters will be calm,
The plague will be gone,
And the rainbow will adorn the sky,

People will live together,
And they will no longer learn war.
And we will be filled with a new heart
And a new spirit.
And we will pursue peace.

And then I woke up To the cooing sound of a dove,
With white wings
On the sill of my window
