Back in the times of King Solomon, wisest of men He explored these very mountains And the sea and their secrets His ships transported to her (the city of Eilat) silver and golden treasures The route for the perfume trade led to her and shiploads of ivory
Chorus: I always come back here to the sunsets reflected on Mount Edom To the seashore and to the quietude unlike any other place I always come back here always excited, almost awestruck At how the desert and sea merge with the works of human hands
White sands, a date palm and hot desert winds A small dirt hut overhanging cliffs and perilous drops On the road going down to the scorched land With a hand-painted flag, a reality is born a city in the Arava (-valley)
Chorus...
With an unseen magical attraction the city holds out its arms Attracting to its gates a thousand young women With sun, beer and sky palm trees casting their shadows Men feel free here though they are caught for life
