ערב עירוני [Erev Ironi] [English translation]

A rose sunset between the rooftops

blue asphalt from below

female eyes gloomy, gloomy

saying to the evening "Why did you come?"

The lights are flowers of the city

blooming in the fragrant light

an electric spring sadly illuminated

from his drunkenness forbidden to flee

He is just an orphan and innocent

born for a moment and then departs

between the days and nights

he comes to shine in our eyes (x2)

Between the days and nights

befitting a blue appearance we will be pleased to follow

all our worn out souls

grass and hay to graze await there

A wave of hello a young girl

her smile is carried by the auto

what was and was not

seems as if it will return to be again

Now I am very much alone

and look deeply into the quiet

how the moon bares her breast

on the wall of the opposite house (x2)

My body has shrunk and sagged

but my head is still held high

even if i shall go

will not look to where i have come

A rose colored sunset at the end of the street

and a street like a tunnel of blue

whomever should arrive at the end

will want to cry out of an abundance of hope (x2)

A rose sunset between the rooftops

blue asphalt from below

female eyes gloomy, gloomy saying

to the evening "Why did you come?"
