The Other Days
Lyrics: Haim Hefer
Music: Dubi Selzer
We will still see the other days,
That are over the smoky, burning mountains
We will still see the other days
Ascending, coming from the valley, descending on us from the mountains
Laughing with the spring, the loves, the youth
And the things that we have already forgotten how they look.
We will still see the other days
The other days
We will go out to welcome them from perforated buildings
From the bomb shelters and the blackened fields
We will go out on crutches from their dazzling light
From the top of the war antennas we sing like a thousand birds
And we will look at them closely, with clear gazes
And the guitars of a thousand young boys accompany their song
We will still see the other days.....
We will still see the other days,
Proud like chapters of the bible, beautiful like the Song of Songs
Flowing like a cascade in the desert, pink like dawn in the mountains
Days of grace and tranquillity, quiet and happy days,
And only during the “remembrance prayer”, during the moments of contemplation
We will again tell everything, and we will eulogize the boys
And we will hear the sound of arms, and the barrage of bullets
And the battle that took place then with the momentum of the greats
We will still say the other days...
