O AHUVATI


OH MY BELOVED
HOY AHUVATI DANCE
OH MY LOVE

Oy my beloved
I became an adult child
I promised you
we'd grow old together.

Oy my beloved
I played you on every string
And together we overcame the fear.

My beloved, I am not broken
I planted a flower in the desert
And you always brought
the rain with you.

My love, it's not over
It's just starting, I'm staying
Love is like wheat to bread.

Oy my beloved
I left in you my youth
And it will be written
about me forever.

Oy my beloved
tell me where until when
Lovers will be able
to sleep securely.

My love it's not over
I'm never broken
Even when the sun
is not always shining.

My love with white neck
And that sounds
pretty familiar to you
Even on days like this you forgive.

Instrumental passage

My beloved, I am not broken
I planted a flower in the desert
And you always brought
the rain with you.

My love, it's not over
It's just starting, I'm staying
Love is like wheat to bread.

Oy my love
we have come a long way
There were paths here and there
we made a mistake.

Oy my love
we planted a green road
Whole nights, hard days we saw.

My lovely lover
Suddenly another year passed for her
See that in the future it will be okay.

My beloved you understand
That to destroy it takes a minute
But love repairs every fracture.

Oy my beloved
I became an adult child
I promised you
we'd grow old together.
