Chorus

Chorus
Her name is Yardena, she's there and she isn't,
she arrived her Jordan from the illusive shore,
Yardenah, she is pretty, I'll forever chase her,
tomorrow she'll be at the Tel Aviv beach.

Red hair, eyes of coal
and the flower of her lips is rose,
the pink colour of blood
chest in pomp, such a narrow waist,
wonderful hips and things -the valley and the mountain
her long legs reach the sky
smile of her teeth like the pearls of a treasure.

She comes suddenly, from the past,
she's an instant of today, instant of tomorrow
love and hate her, and I'm a bit envious of her
I know she doens't have a fault and it's done
I remember the magic, the goodness
even the terrible and the bitter.

Chorus

The horse stops, the reins are torn,
My God will preserve the same young woman
goodbye Yardenah, I'll always remember her
for good and for bad I'll remember her till the end
Now to freedom, now to pleasure
now to the wide horizon to the end of days.

She comes suddenly, from the past,
she's a moment of today, moment of tomorrow
She pursues me, drives me crazy, bewitches me and drags me
She burns me, wets me, disocers me and covers me,
She's wicked, wild, provoking and it touches me,
she knows what she does forever affects me.

She pursues me, drives me crazy, bewitches me and drags me
She burns me, wets me, disocers me and covers me,
She's wicked, wild, provoking and it touches me,
she knows what she does forever affects me.
