about

הַגֶשֶׂם מְדָבֵּר בְּשֶׁקֶט,
אַתְּ יְכוֹלָה עַכְשָו לִישוֹן.

לְיַד מִיטָּתִי מַשַּׁק כַּנְפֵי עִתּוֹן,
אֵין מַלְאָכִים אֲחֵרִים.

אַשְׁכִּים לְשַׁחֵד אֶת הַיּוֹם הַבָּא,
שֶׁיִּהְיֶה טוֹב אֵלֵינוּ.


The rain speaks quietly;
You may now sleep.

Beside my bed – a newspaper’s rushing wings.
There are no other angels.

I’ll get up early and bribe the coming day,
That it be good to us.
