שוב תודה [Shuv Todah] [English translation]

This is your time to let me go

the hour to remove from me the tent stakes

that i will be able to go on my way

to the valley of tomorrow from the ravine of yesterday

Those were the days - I would explore your fields

to find between your lips nectar for honey

and in those nights i would go down to the river

to wash in your eyes that which was dry

Thanks again for the courage that

you knew to glean fruit from my earth

your understanding along the way

helped to nurture who i am today

Those were the days...

When was the last time we picked a flower

And without some impending holiday

it is more than a week, or month, or year...

Those were the days...
