KAN BADAROM


 

Hak'shivi, yaldah, el hasheket
Rak haru'ach rogesh,
Habiti, yaldah, eich hashemesh
Sholachat mabat shel esh.

Chorus:
Kan badarom hacham
Sheket shel ein adam
Kan badarom hacham
Tiv'ar hashemesh le'olam.

Nof pere kadmon vetzachi'ach
Tzuk ve'emek t'rashim.
Karka lo tad'she, lo tatzmi'ach,
Zot eretz shel bereshit.
Kan badarom...

Roge'a, domem, yam hamelach
Be'or shemesh notzetz,
Balailah el mul hayare'ach
Shachor ve'ilem rovetz.

Kan badarom hacham......

HERE IN THE SOUTH


Listen, girl, to the silence
Only the wind is in commotion,
Look, girl, how the sun
Emits its flaming gaze.

Chorus:
Here in the hot south
The silence of the soul-less space
Here in the hot south
The sun will forever blaze.

Wild, ancient and dry landscape
Cliff and valley - rocky ground.
Soil yields no grass, no seed shall it grow,
This is the land of Genesis.
Here in the hot South...

Calm and still is the Dead Sea,
In the light of the sparkling sun;
But at night in the moonlight
Black and mute, it brooding lies.

Here in the hot South...
