Noa - For Father (Yalda Im Tzamot) lyrics

Lyrics & Music: G. Prinsky

I remember years ago

A little girl with her laughter

From high up on on your shoulders you would tell

Me stories,

And sing to me softly

Once I had a little girl

With two braids swinging on her back

When she undid her thick black braids

My heart would also come undone

In the meadow, I unraveled them

Friendly old moon smiled down on us

But in the fall, shed shed them all

To the autumn of our souls

In the meadow, I unraveled them

Friendly old moon smiled down on us

Once I had a little girl

With two braids swinging on her back

She has gone, this little girl

And taken spring away with her

Now that same girl stands before you

Long black hair caped over her shoulders

Stage lights shine

And in my mind

I send a song out to you

Once I had a little girl

With two braids swinging on her back

But autumns past

And she will laugh

Fall is all but gone away

A lovely spring

Begins

Today
