I woke up to this old Israeli song and felt it so appropriate today as so many soldiers are called back and I wanted to share it with my English speaking friends and family, so Ive made a rough translation of it - but check out the link to the Israeli version too. Our eyes have dried from crying Because our pain is so strong We’ve been standing in silence so long What more can we ask you to bring? We’ve already asked for nearly everything So, let it rain in winter and then In spring let the flowers bloom. And let us come back home again, More than that we do not need or assume. We’ve been pained by thousands of scars, Deep down we can only sigh. Haven’t we passed your test? We can no longer cry. So, let it rain in winter and then In spring let the flowers bloom. Allow us to be all together once again More than that we do not need or assume Hills have been covered over and over, And hearts have been placed by the trees. We let out a sigh with our prayers Will you listen please? So, let it rain in winter and then In spring let the flowers bloom. Allow us to see it all once again, More than that we do not need or assume. https://youtube/watch?v=HSR40XoN12w
