The song ("Darkenu") was written in 1986 by Yankel' Rotblit, dedicated to his wife who was battling ALS and died about a decade later.
~ Sorry the translation is not accurate...
... Shards of light in your tears / And a smile gropes its way to me again
All the treasures of this world await you / Put your head on my shoulder, put your hand in mine
|
Soon the candle will die out / Soon the blessed silence will be defeated
The bustle of the day will begin to emerge / You will not walk alone, I'll be there with you
|
Not so easy our way is
And sometimes your eyes are so sad
We still have blooming fields ahead of us
More high mountains, with chilled tops...
