lo mevater al hachalom sheli adiyyn
I'm not giving up on my dream, not yet
yored baboker el hayam lirot shamayim
I go down to the sea in the morning to see the sky
umnagen im chaverim
and I play with friends
uchshehem menangenim iti
and when they play along with me
anachnu nihyim kerovim
we grow closer
kemo anashim amitiyim
like real people
lo mevater al hachalom, shoel heychan hu
I'm not giving up on the dream, wondering where it is
rak habachurot harishonot zochrot otanu
only the first girls still remember us
hachofshiyim omrim li sa
the free ones tell me to go
az bay lach motek bay lach
so goodbye sweetheart, goodbye
haregesh shehirgashti paam chozer eley shuv betisa
the feeling I once felt comes back to me again in flight
lo mevater al hachalom
I'm not giving up on the dream
uchshehu mevater aley
and when it gives up on me
ani machazik oto chazak
I hold on to it tightly
mode mode bechulshotay
humbly, humbly admitting my weaknesses
veacharey leyl ahava itech
and after a night of love with you
kesheani margish kevar merukan
when I'm already feeling drained
tishari lishon iti lachalom beyachad bekatan
stay and sleep with me, dream together just a little
yesh li chalom kachol veyesh li bo shamayim
I have a blue dream and in it there is sky
lo mevater al hachalom al hachalom sheli adayin... adin...
I'm not giving up on the dream, on my dream, not yet... not yet...
shalosh belondiniot tzorchot betoch rakevet
three blondes screaming on a train
lechal achat mehem chalom shel meohevet
each one of them carries a lover's dream
hatzeva lo kovea kelum tzoek hayeled hashachum
color doesn't decide a thing, cries the dark-skinned boy
umitakesh al hachalom shelo - lichbosh et hayekum
insisting on his dream — to conquer the universe
kashe lichyot iti ani lo mitvakecha
It's hard to live with me, I won't argue
hachalomot sheli pezurim al hayarecha
my dreams are scattered across the moon
velifamim baafela cholem ta'shemesh hagedola
and sometimes in the darkness I dream of the great sun
rak or haboker lo zakuk kamonu leeyzo menora
only the morning light, like us, needs no lamp
lo mevater al hachalom
I'm not giving up on the dream
uchshehu mevater aley
and when it gives up on me
ani machazik oto chazak
I hold on to it tightly
mode mode bechulshotay
humbly, humbly admitting my weaknesses
veacharey leyl ahava itech
and after a night of love with you
kesheani margish kevar meukam
when I'm already feeling twisted inside
tishaari lishon iti lachlom beyachad bekatan
stay and sleep with me, dream together just a little
veacharey layla ahava itech
and after a night of love with you
kesheani margish kevar merukan
when I'm already feeling drained
tishaari lishon iti lachlom beyachad bekatan
stay and sleep with me, dream together just a little
yesh li chalom kachol veyesh li bo shamayim
I have a blue dream and in it there is sky
