ELAT HA'AHAVAH ELA THE LOVE GODDESS
   

Layla layla
mit'oreret peta mishnata
Mechalom shelo zocheret
efo bo hayta
She'ela ba menakeret,
she'ela ktana
Lehachlif et hamisgeret
o et hatmuna

Ela, Ela,
at tzricha shuv lehatchil mehatchala
Ela, Ela,
ki mikol tshuva tzomachat she'ela

Inyanim mitkalkelim
velo motz'im kivun
Hadvarim mitgalgelim
ke'ilu ein kivun
Kmo tzipor bichluv zahav
shachacht ketzad la'uf
Mit'atefet lach lashav
basheker hashakuf

Ela……

Night after night,
she suddenly wakes up from her sleep
Out of a dream, she can't remember
where she's been
A question bothers her:
(a small question):
To replace the frame (the surrounding)
or the picture

Ela, Ela,
you have to start from the beginning again
Ela, Ela,
because from every answer pops a question

Things break down,
can't find the direction
Things keep rolling on,
like there is no direction
Like a bird in a golden cage,
you forgot how to fly
And in vain you wrap your self
in the see through lie

Ela, Ela,
