'EREV SHEL SHOSHANIM (ENGLISH)
[A]
An evening of Roses
Come let us go into the grove
Myrrh, spices and frankincense
are crushed beneath your feet
[B]
Night falls slowly
A lily breeze blows
Come, I shall whisper
you a love song slowly,
A song of love
[A]
Dawn, a dove coos
Your drowsy head full of dew
You lips a rose to the morn;
I'll pick it for myself.
