09 Aval Machar Echzor (But I'll Be Back Tomorrow) - Ofra Haza

In 1987 came the third and last issue of the „Shirey Moledet” series, for the 40th anniversary of founding the Israeli State. Thus as if Ofra would sit with David Ben-Gurion’s spirit (Israel’s former prime minister, he declared independence for the Jewish state) listening to his tales on the album cover image. The tracks are deep Israeli folk songs again in a new approach.

Lyrics (English translation):

A single flashlight is on and the silence descends
For the gloom and the wind will still blow
A flashlight dims again, I stand alone
As if here you’d come, you're just a little late

The road, the flashlight and the silence of last night
You’re late again, because you may not remember either
Look, they'd come down in the night, since the Sun had set
I'll wait a little longer, but I'll be back tomorrow

The trail is hot when it rains in the summer
The autumn leaves have piled up in the wind
The wind is still congested in the puddles of water
And again, spring flowers emerge as always

Sunsets always fall, evening shadows rise
How much we loved the twilight hour
And the leaves whispered softly, the path filled again with deafness
And only you are not and will not whisper to me anymore
