צל עץ תמר [Tzel Etz Tamar] [English translation]

Shadow of the palm tree and the moonlight

And violin's tune charms the heart

Rising in a sound, trembling and spliting apart

From the strings is speading the pain

Play violin, play your songs

How great is the darkness and the silence around us

Your melodies will make me forget my suffering

Play, please play... To your voice's sound how pleasant is the dream

Play, please play... The moon will listen* to my voice there, in the heaven

Oh why, by your lips why did you seduce me

Conquered my heart and left me

Enamoured, hurt and suffering

The violin has fall silent

The moon has evanesced

And in the silence only the melody's echo is still heard

For what and why God knows

Why the world is cruel and bad

Out of dust's mist appear

Beloved's figure and familiar features

The violin will sound

Gift of such a pleasant reminiscences.
