אגדת השמש והירח [Agadat HaShemsh v'HaYareach] [English translation]

They surround her

seven planets

but she burns for

his pale face.

And he is so far away

in the skies of the earth

although yearning1for her

for her golden fire.

Shadow of the moon

to the face of the sun is drawn.

always between day and night

touching there above -

and it is not enough for him, not enough for her

just for a fleeting moment.

and every day, endless years

he is dead2in her light

she is dead in his.

sunset sunrise rose colored

lost love.

Often in their despair

they darken for a moment,

eclipse of the moon

and eclipse of the sun.

However in this chase

they light up the sky

prisoners to their orbits

without consolation.

Shadow of the moon

to the face of the sun is drawn.

always between day and night

touching there above -

and it is not enough for him, not enough for her

just for a fleeting moment.

and every day, endless years

he is dead in her light

she is dead in his.

sunset sunrise rose colored

lost love.
