OFRA HAZA - HAGESHEM [THE RAIN] lyrics

Hageshem heivi oti eilecha [The rain brought me to you]
Mitoch tiyul aroch el toch hachoref [From a long walk into the winter]
Hageshem hika be'or panecha [The rain struck the light of your face]
Kmo ratza limchot dim'a acheret [As if wanting to wipe away a different tear]

Ata borei'ach [You run away]
Ata borei'ach [You run away]
Umenagen ben hatipot et [And play* between the drops]
nishmatcha habochiya [your crying soul]
Eincha shomei'a [You don't hear]
Eincha shomei'a [You don't hear]
Eincha rotzeh yoter [You no longer want to read]
likro t'filot erga.... [prayers of longing....]

Hageshem . . . [The rain . . .]

Ata borei'ach [You run away]
Ata borei'ach [You run away]
Umenaseh lashuv lichyot et [And try to relive the memories]
zichronot kawl avarcha [of all your past]
Eincha yodei'a [You don't know]
Eincha yodei'a [You don't know]
Kama ke'ev hotira bi [How much pain your love]
ahavatcha.... [left within me....]


*as if playing an instrument
