SOF LASIPUR

SOF HASIPUR 

Shum hafta'ot ein basipur
shuv hadma'ot al ha'ipur
hachagigah nig'meret
hamasechah nosheret
veshuv hadma'ot al ha'ipur
vehachiyuch she'od tafur
nif'ram mesiftoteicha
nifrad kvar me'aleicha
vesof lasipur.

Kol hak'samim tamu chalfu
kol ha'orot kvar ne'esfu
hazman she'ein rofe lo
chamak chalaf k'mo pele
ve'rak hazi'ah al hapanim
kove'a ma'uch reik mish'fanim
kol hatzofim kvar kamu
kol hatshu'ot nadamu
parchu hayonim.

Gam ha'emet, gam hab'dayah
mah shehayah, k'mo lo hayah
namog keheref ayin
ve'rak atah adain
veshuv hadma'ot al ha'ipur
vehachiyuch she'od tafur
nif'ram mesiftoteicha
nifrad kvar me'aleicha
vesof lasipur.

END OF THE STORY

 

There are no surprises in the story
again the tears are on the make-up
the celebration is over
the mask falls off
and again the tears are on the make-up
and the smile that is stilled stitched in
ripped from your lips
it's already separated from you
and it's the end of the story.

All the magic finished and passed
all the lights are already out
the time which has no healer
slipped away, passed like a miracle
and only the sweat on the face
sets squashed, empty of coneys
all the scouts have already gotten up
all the applause went silent
the doves bloomed.

Even the truth, even the falsehod
what had been, as though it had never been
fading away like the blink of an eye
and only you are still
and again the tears are on the make-up
and the smile that is stilled switched in
ripped from your lips
it's already separated from you
and it's the end of the story.
