keshehayinu yeladot
When we were little girls
az hayu lanu sodot
we had our secrets then
vehayinu az ratzot umsachakot
we used to run and play together
vehayinu nearot,
we were young girls,
mitlachashot umchayechot
whispering and smiling
veavarnu yachad et kol hakitot.
and we went through every grade together.

medaberot shaot shelemot,
We'd talk for hours and hours,
al banim veal banot
about boys and about girls
veal kol hakavanot hanistarot
and all the hidden intentions
vekonot bachanuyot,
and shopping in the stores,
bigdey yam ustam shetuyot
bathing suits and silly things
veholchot limsibot lehofaot.
and going to parties, to shows.

Lady, you always were,

the only one who stayed with me always.

and we remained friends,

and I call you, when I feel alone.

when we both rode with that same type

just you and me, soul.
