LAND OF ISRAEL

 

I built you a house there in the sand
Land of Israel
I sang a beautiful song about the blue sea
Land of Israel
what is (left) of the night, oh guard, what is (left) of the night

Evening hangs over the Golan again
Land of Israel
there a young soldier lies still in ambush
Land of Israel
how (far gone) is the night, watchman, how (far gone) is the night

Oh how much I love you
Land of Israel
so then why am I so sad
Land of Israel
how much (remains) from the night, oh, keeper, how much (remains) from the night
