NIVRETI LACH
music & lyrics: Shlomo Artzi
Ktav yadech halo mukar li
vekolech hamehapnet
Tziltzulech hatelefoni
Shichna oti latzet
Mehabayit hacham larechov hakashe
El ha'olam
Hitpatalti kshekarat li
Ki assur haya li az
Lefaresh et simanayich
Ke'otot shel ahava
Kvar shachachti matay afti
Umatay et kol chushay ibadti kach
Ha'im samt lev, ani bikashti rak dvarim
she'ein?
Mekomot avudim, simanim shel esh
Chayai beTel-Aviv, hesderim romantim
Hitbonenut pnimit uma shehe'emanti
Kach yatzati el haderech
Kshehigati bati
Ne'emadeti badelet
Ma yadati lo yadati
Hitpashateti vezazti
Kmo metoraf bacheder
"Elohim!", amart "Shavu'a
tisha'er po!"
Gam ani hirgashti kach!
Ki ani nivreti lach!
Anashim shelo amdu
Beketzev hachayim haze
Histag'u, hit'abdu
O halchu la'azazel
Bachashecha, babayit hacham,
Ze kore
Ha'im samt lev, ani bikashti rak dvarim

Mekomot avudim, simanim shel esh
Chayai beTel-Aviv, hesderim romantim
Hitbonenut pnimit uma shehe'emanti
Kach yatzati el haderech
Kshehigati bati
Ne'emadeti badelet
Ma yadati lo yadati
Hitpashateti vezazti
Kmo metoraf bacheder
Shneinu yachad kvar shavua kmo gan Eden!
Mesukan lanu kol kach!
Ki ani nivreti lach!
Ki ani nivreti lach!
Kach yatzati el haderech

Ne'emadeti badelet
Ma yadati lo yadati
Hitpashateti vezazti
Kmo metoraf bacheder
Shneinu yachad kvar shavua kmo gan Eden!
Mesukan lanu kol kach!
Ki ani nivreti lach!
Ki ani nivreti lach! |

I WAS CREATED FOR YOU*
Your unfamiliar handwriting
And your hypnotizing voice
Your phone call
Has persuaded me to go out
From the warm house, to the tough street,
To the world
I got twisted when you called me
For I was not supposed to
Interpret your signs
As omens of love
I already forgot when I was flying
And when I lost all my senses like that
Did you notice I only asked for things I
don't have?
Lost places, signs of fire
My life in Tel-Aviv, Romantic settlements
Inner glance, and what I believed it
And so I hit the road
And I came as I arrived
I stood at the door
What I knew I didn't know
I took off my clothes and moved
Like a lunatic in the room
"My God!" you said "Stay
for a week!"
I felt the same
Because I was created for you
People who didn't keep up
With the pace of life
Went mad, commited suicide
Or went to hell
In the darkness, in the warm house
It happens
Did you notice I only asked for things I
don't have?
Lost places, signs of fire
My life in Tel-Aviv, Romantic settlements
Inner glances, and what I believed it
And so I hit the road
And I came as I arrived
I stood at the door
What I knew I didn't know
I took off my clothes and moved
Like a lunatic in the room
The both of us are like in Heaven for a
week now!
It's so dangerous for us!
Because I was created for you!
Because I was created for you!
And so I hit the road
And I came as I arrived
I stood at the door
What I knew I didn't know
I took off my clothes and moved
Like a lunatic in the room
The both of us are like in Heaven for a
week now!
It's so dangerous for us!
Because I was created for you!
Because I was created for you!
*The term "Created" in this
song
is in its Biblical meaning, as God
created the universe and everything in it |
