On the eastern wall
there is green moss and dampness,
And the spirit of
God swells there,
The Pine tree looks
over the mountain and valley
And at the basin
of the sea- a flute's melody.
You can hear the
songs of the shepherd,
In the markets the
pulse beats,
You can find there
honeydew, nectar, dirt and filth,
In the basin of the
sea- eggplant salad.
Something deep in
the heart says: doesn't matter what happens,
The Eastern Wall
is yours forever.
On the Eastern Wall
the Star of David,
And his violin hangs
on the willows.
A star, a moon and
a cross,
In the basin of the
sea the wind flies.
The Eastern Wall
is covered with Grey dust and soot,
The gate will be
closed with locks and bar.
You will find a Priest,
a Rabbi and a Muezzin on the tower
In the basin of the
sea a boat sails.
