The Old Love

haahava hayeshana, zot sheborcha li,
The old love, the one that fled from me,
munachat sham veaf echad kevar lo nogea,
Lying there and no one touches it anymore,
mizeman lifney kol haseratim hapornografiyim,
Long before all the pornographic films,
haya od mashehu pashut lehitgagea.
There was still something simple to long for.
hakinorot hametukim lo menagenim li,
The sweet violins don't play for me,
lo ashaker lach sheetzli hakol beseder,
I won't lie to you that everything is fine with me,
eyn shum patentim, haolam nihya kevar gimik,
There are no more tricks, the world has become a gimmick,
az boi venachazor leintimiut bacheder.
So come and let us return to intimacy in the room.
beshalat rachok, mabit rachok,
With a remote control, looking far,
at shuv loveshet lach simlat kala,
You are wearing your wedding dress again,
vaani takua bachalifat chayeynu.
And I am stuck in our life's suit.
beshalat rachok mabit rachok,
With a remote control looking far,
lo ani lo anicha lach,
No, I will not let you go,
ad shehaahava,
Until love,
tachazor eleynu.
Returns to us.
at yodaat lo hayiti shar lach setam kach,
You know I wouldn't sing to you for nothing,
haneviim kevar metu, veeyn mi sheyenabe li,
The prophets have already died, and there is no one to prophesy for me,
chalaliot afot lemala ulmata,
Spaceships fly up and down,
pitom ze shir gaguim o shenidme li...
Suddenly this is a song of longing, or so it seems to me...
beshalat rachok...
With a remote control...
