3. Three Days (c)

Shloshah yamim lo mash zichro mimeni

Ubvarvi-i parasti et halechem

Ubarvi-i patachti et hatsoar

Ubarvi-i raiti et hayam

Shloshah yamim lo mash zichro mimeni

Ubarvi-i yada'ati shehayam

Yafeh me'od umerchavo kachol

Uv'mashav-haruach hamaluach

Re'ach hayam, lo ta'am dim'otay



Translation:

Standing in the heart of the desert

I have not one star

The wind is silent

The sand will not preserve my footprints



Standing in the heart of the desert

I have not even one star

And the wind is not whispering to me...



I called out: answer me!

He did not answer

I cried out: open!

He did not

The night was burning hot and dry

I went to a different gate to try



I called out: answer me!

He did not answer

I cried out: open!

He did not

The night was strangling and sedate

I went to try a different gate



I whispered: answer me

He did not answer

I pleaded: open

He did not

That morning the sun rose, but dew wouldnt fall

Thus I was found by the guards of the wall



Three days his memory haunted me

And on the fourth I cut the bread

And on the fourth I opened the window

And on the fourth I saw the sea...



Three days his memory haunted me

And on the fourth I knew

The sea was beautiful and blue



And in the breeze

The scent of waves

But not the taste of tears
