А я - гитара,
Играет тихо ветер мной,
Мелодии сменя.
Да, я - гитара,
Душу трогаю струной
И ночью, и при свете дня.
А захочу я песню спеть -
С тобой сыграю я дуэт,
И даже трио, и квартет
Не помешает.
Sham babayit hakatan
shoshanim porchot bagan
uvashovach halavan -
hayonah.
va'ani cholem achshav
al knafaim shel zahav,
ech bashamaim ani af
verak elaich shav.
Tni li yad,
mechabeket vetovah,
tni li yad,
mechazeket ushalvah,
tni li yad
vechaki li ahuvah,
kshe'ani kan levad -
tni li yad.
Sham betsel alon kaved
chay lo zikaron oved
ve'iti hu kol ha'et
kmo tmunah -
va'ani cholem alav
basufah uvasharav,
eini yachol od bil'adav -
rotzeh otach achshav.
Tni li yad,
mechabeket vetovah,
tni li yad,
mechazeket veshalvah,
tni li yad
vechaki li ahuvah,
kshe'ani kan levad -
tni li yad.
GIVE ME YOUR HAND
Over there in the small house
roses bloom in the garden
and in the white dove-cote -
the dove.
And I dream now
of wings of gold,
how I'm flying in the sky
and returning only to you.
Give me your hand,
embracing and good,
give me your hand,
holding and still,
give me your hand,
and wait for me love,
when I'm here alone -
give me your hand.
There in the shaddow of the heavy oak-tree,
a lost memories lives,
and it's with me all the time
like a picture -
and I dream about it
in storm and heat,
I can no longer do without it -
I want you now.
Give me your hand,
embracing and good,
give me your hand,
holding and still,
give me your hand,
and wait for me love,
when I'm here alone -
give me your hand.
