ULAI AL SFAT HAYAM


 

Lech chapes et hasimchah
bein hakar lehasmichah.
Bi o bah, ulai becha -
ulai al sfat hayam.

Nachalim zormim hayamah,
uvayam kol derech tamah,
gam hashemesh namah shamah -
al tagid li lamah.

Lech chapes et hakivun
betzlilav shel hanigun,
biz'navo shel hat'manun -
ulai al sfat hayam.

Nachalim zormim...

Lech chapes et hat'shuvah
batorah o bak'tuvah,
betinshemet atzuvah -
ulai al sfat hayam.

Nachalim zormim...

Lech chapes et Elohim
beganim, be'avanim,
be'alim, be'avkanim -
ulai al sfat hayam.

Nachalim zormim...

PERHAPS ON THE SEASHORE


Go look for the joy
between the pillow and the blanket.
In me or her, maybe in you -
perhaps on the seashore.

Rivers flow to the sea,
and in the sea each way is flawless,
even the sun is slumbery there -
don't tell me why.

Go look for the direction
in the sound of the tune,
in the tail of the octopus -
perhaps on the seashore.

Rivers flow...

Go look for the answer,
in the Torah or the Writings,
in a sad barn owl -
perhaps on the seashore.

Rivers flow...

Go look for God
in parks, in rocks,
in leaves, in stamen -
perhaps on the seashore.

Rivers flow...
