Jewish prayer songs and Hebrew songs (popular/classic)

[Lipush]

Alohim Natan Lecha Bematana: This song is very well known in Israel. Its most touching presentation was on live television, few years ago, as a 7 year old boy,Offir Elbaz stood on stage and with amazing voice shook the stage

????? ???? ? ?????? ??? ?? ????? - mako

Offir Elbaz was born and raised in Sderot for all his life. In the song he thanked The Lord for everything, but did ask for one thing more...

Another version to this song

God gave you, as a present
A huge, wonderful thing
God gave you a present
Living on this earth

He gave you day and night
Love, hope and dreams
Summer, winter, autumn, spring
And a good soul to look around

He gave you green fields
Flowers and blooming trees
Rivers, brooks and seas
Heaven, moon and stars

He gave you high holidays and the Sabbath
He gave you Israel , our fathers' land
Hands and a head to fulfil dreams
He gave you all the wonders

He gave you such beautiful things!
To bring children to this world
Listen to the songs, to see the colours
"How manifold are Thy works, O LORD"

God, give me only one more present
A small but wonderful present
God, give me only one more present
Give peace upon the face of this earth

Omed Basha'ar (Standing at the gate) was originally written by Amir Benyaoun, as a hope for seeing the upcoming of the Messiah. After Gilad Shalit was taken, this song suddenly recieved a whole new meaning, and was then known to be dedicated to the abducted soldier. After his return, it got back the original purpose, as in, the hope to see the Messiah coming soon...

I heard that you were coming back the whole way
I saw angels setting a table for the king's son
I also saw a ladder of yearning, rising and falling
I heard winds softly carresing the leaves
I saw you, it wasn't mirage or my imagination

I heard that the sea has declared it a Happy Day
I saw the stars and the moon dancing
They also know how to roll back
I heard that the sun is in fact a shadow
I saw a tower shaking and then crumbling down

Come!
we have been waiting for you for too many years
We all have became crazed
we no longer have faces
Just continually disintegrating,
so come!
Yes come...

I heard you are actually standing at the gate
And that any innocent lamb could live in the woods
and I heard that this heart will no longer die
Imagination will sign a peace treaty with reality
All the sounds will become one simple song!

Come!
we have been waiting for you for too many years
We all have became crazed
we no longer have faces
Just continually disintegrating,
so come!
Yes come...

Oh, come!
There are no more tools left to break
We do not know who is the clear minded
Who is the drunken one who always falls down the hole, as it were

So come, come back

I heard that you were coming back the whole way
I saw angels setting a table for the king's son

I saw you!
It wasn't mirage or my imagination...

If all the people in the world,
suddenly held hands
a great chain of people,
from here until tomorrow.
If all the planes of the world,
would take off for the sky
and scatter good messages,
of purity and love.
If on each injustice that is created,
we spray soap and water,
there won't be any deprivation (of priviledges)
or a stage for rebelling
if all the leaders of the world,
raised a glass to a toast (to life)
all the world's soldiers
they'd dress in pink

Illusions, sweet illusions
that I see, when I close an eye,
Illusions, sweet illusions
that I hear, when I fall asleep to the news.

If we plan flowers - colourful and
pretty in every zone,
then in each field or even any desert,
suddenly there'll be style.
If a cute knight on a white horse,
will ride waiting at the doorstep,
then I'll turn into a princess
and he'll have a palace.
If to each starving (person) in the world,
we (will) give a bag of flour,
then he'll start to live a life of honour
in the midst of reality.
If we stop the clock,
the now time will flow for me forever,
all the people will live
a life of happiness and liberty.

Mishehu Gadol (somebody great), besides being a beautiful song, has a special meaning to me. originally its dedicated for G-d, also performed by Shay Gabso, religious singer.

I sang this song on my Bat Mitzvah however. Family members and friends all knew I was a foundling, and adopted by two great people, but on my Bat-Mitzvah party, infront of 300 people, I took the microphone and sang my thanks to them, with "Mishehu Gadol". It was a life-changing experience I remember till today.

Another gray cloud passes within - wanders
it extends its hands
so that I'd come to it in the dark
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home

Somebody great will guard over me up there
so I won't fall
a soft hand will come to me
quiety there calming me
then my hand will drop tiredly
from the fear I'm again in her bosom
somebody great will guard over me up there
so I won't fall

Another small branch is broken within - boom
another hit, another hit and I won't be able to get up
I just wanna go home, I just wanna go home

Somebody great will guard over me up there
so I won't fall
quiety there calming me
then my hand will drop tiredly
from the fear I'm again in her bosom
somebody great will guard over me up there
so I won't fall

Somebody great will guard over me up there
so I won't fall

Inyan Shel Zman (A matter of time) was performed by Aric Einstain, as a theme for a tv-show about teenagers in highshcool, carrying the same name.

10 year old Sheli Markolov sings it beautifully.

Take your time slowly
The world will still be waiting outside
Take another aspiration for the time being
Two minutes before facing reality.

To be devoted to the heart that is going wild
To the bursting imagination
And to the happiness that is touching
The depths of pain.

You will still discover the world
Whether you want to or not
There is still time to change
From one extreme to the other.

If love hurt you yesterday
Maybe tomorrow it will hurt no more
If the tears flow with no voice
Maybe at the end you will have a wide grin.

To be devoted to the heart that is going wild
To the bursting imagination
And to the happiness that is touching
The depths of pain.

You will still discover the world
Whether you want to or not
There is still time to change
From one extreme to the other.

Mikan (from here) has two versions. One of Shlomi Shabbat which describes a love song, and other, that describes the love between the people of Israel and the land.

Prodigy Agam Buchbut, 9, performed the second version. Agam was born and raised in southern Israel, and after "Pillar of defense" recorded and filmed the clip, which talks about her love to her homeland and district.

From here, doesn't matter where to
We won't move from here,
Together we'll stay and maybe
From here, the morning will rise
I won't be surprised
That I am still here.

Here it all began,
it won't ever end,
Here we took out oath
All gathered in prayer
No longer alone
Leaving false hopes
Tonight it's allowed
To cry

From here, I have a small light
Because I'm still here
And it's always a sign
That good's about to come
"G-d hath taken away
G-d gave"
A blue-white light

Here it all began,
it won't ever end,
Here we took out oath
All gathered in prayer
No longer alone
Leaving false hopes
Tonight it's allowed
To cry
