I HAVE, YOU HAVE

 

You have the blue eyes
I just have the expectation
You have the wonder
I have the wonderment
You have the hips
I have the dance
You have the wine jug
I have the thirst

For you - my heart jumps
For me I have your plaits
For you - I have a free wild man's longing in my blood
To you my dream is solved
To me your riddles
When stars fall among the Lilac bush

Wai-wai-wai.................

You have the apple
I have the open bakcpack
You have the blower
I have the coal
You have the tree top
I have a wild storm
You have the vine yard
I have the foxes….

For you - my heart jumps.........

Wai wai wai...

You have a home pigeon
I have the hunting and arrows
You have the olive branch
I have an ancient flood
You have the scent
I have thorns and the thorn bush
You have the Shilo’ach river
I have the Sambatiyon river

For you - my heart jumps............

Note:
Alt. Lo _____ ve'lach ______

The dance known now as Wai Wai Wai is originaly Lilach which means Lilac (a flower called after its own colour). Originaly the song was sung by the famous trio Hagashash Hachiver in the 1960-1970. It has just been revived by Gabi Shushan who came back after many years of no creation or major performances. The song is very popular in Isreal at the moment and is sung on the radio every hour (on reshet Gimmel). The dance is cute and uplifting like the song.

VOCÊ TEM, EU TENHO

Você tem os olhos azuis
e eu, só a espectativa
Você tem o milagre
e eu tenho a surpresa
Você tem os quadris
e eu tenho a dança
Você tem a jarra de vinho
e eu tenho a sede.

Por você meu coração estremece
para mim tenho as tranças
Por você tenho a liberdade selvagem correndo nas veias
Para você meu sonho acontece
Para mim, teus mistérios
quando estrelas caem entre os arbustos de lilases

Wai, wai, wai, wai ...

Você tem a maçã
e eu tenho a mochila aberta
Você tem o sopro
e eu tenho a brasa
Você tem o topo da árvore
e eu tenho o temporal
Você tem o vinhedo
e eu tenho as raposas ...

Por você meu coração estremece ...

Wai, wai, waI, wai ...

Você tem o pombo doméstico
e eu, a caçada e as flechas
Você tem o ramo de oliveira
e eu tenho o antigo dilúvio
Você tem a fragrância
e eu tenho espinhos e o espinheiro
Você tem o rio Shilo'ach
e eu tenho o rio Sambation ...

Por você meu coração estremece ...
