AVSHALOM

Av'shalom 

 

Rabim habanim shehayu leDavid
Ach b'no Avshalom meyuchad veyachid
Chason ke'alon veyafeh ad chemda
Ve'ein od kamohu bechol Yehudah.

Yado ha'achat hu hoshit lim'lucha
Be'od hashnia lenashim nishlecha
Meir elei ir al pirdo hu rachav
Asah nefashot lim'lucha ulmishkav

Pizmon:
Avshalom Avshalom b'ni Avshalom
Mi yiten moti tachtecha hayom
(x2)

Rabot hanashim shehayu leDavid
Ach beit pilagshav meyuchad veyachid
Ve'eser nashim ba'armon hu hoshiv
Lishmor et p'tachav mikol tzar veyariv
K'sheba la'armon Avshalom vekarav
Akvu mabatei hanashim acharav
Nishmor ha'armon hen amru peh echad
Yikach Avshalom et gufeinu bilvad

Pizmon...

Kivun shechata Avshalom et chet'o
Matz'a bein anafei ha'eleh et moto
Vechachah im erev hugad leDavid
Sheb'no venashav bo beyom hu hif'sid
Ho b'ni Avshalom hu kara bekol chad
Ani hen hayom gam shekol, gam niv'gad
Me'az hu lo shav lehermon le'olam
Verak hanashim sham tavu chaloman

Pizmon...

ABSALOM

King David's Special Son 

David had many sons
But his son Absalom was special and unique
Strong as an oak and beyond handsome
And there was no other like him in the whole of Judea.






Chorus:
Absalom Absalom My son Absalom
Mi yiten moti tachtecha hayom
(x2)
