BEN YAKAR

BEN 

Lefet'a hitbagarta ben, etmol hayita yeled.
Latzet laderech mitkonen,
omed al saf hadelet.

Ha'or afor vatzel shachor,
kisah et hashamaim.
Ve'od me'at k'mo tzipor,
atah tifros knafaim.

Chakeh od rega ben yakar,
bachutz halaylah mesukan.
Libi holech itcha bedarkecha,
kdei shetizkor lishmor al atzmecha.

Haderech retzufah ashan,
al adamah bo'eret.
Amok banefesh hargashah
kashah she'lo nigmeret.

Ani do'eg atah shotek,
ha'etzev meyage'a.
bil'adecha habait rek,
ani mitgage'a.

Chakeh od rega ben yakar,
bachutz halaylah mesukan.
Libi holech itcha bedarkecha,
kdei shetizkor lishmor al atzmecha.

DEAR SON

SON 

Suddenly you grew up son, yesterday you were a child.
Ready to go out on your way,
you stand on the doorstep.

The light is gray and the shadow is black,
it covered the sky.
And soon like a bird,
you will spread your wings.

Wait a moment dear son,
outside the night is dangerous.
My heart goes with you on your way,
so that you remember to watch over yourself.

The path is paved with smoke,
it burns on the ground.
Deep in the soul there's a feeling,
it's hard and never ending.

I worry, you're calm,
the sorrow is weary,
without you the house is empty,
I miss and yearn (for you.)

Wait a moment dear son,
outside the night is dangerous.
My heart goes with you on your way,
so that you remember to watch over yourself.
