I wanted to put up something by the Ethiopian-influenced Idan Raichel Project.
It’s a cool song...could someone find the English translation? Here’s “Mima’amakim.”
Aaron will be in Jerusalem tomorrow, which is probably already today...for him.
So I thought I’d send this out to him from Matisyahu: “Late Night in Zion” (live in Israel)...
Am Yisroel Chai! Love you, Aaron! emma vey abba

Translation of Mime'amakim
From deep depths I called to you to come to me
with your return the light in my eyes will come back
it's not finished,
I am not leaving the touch of your hands
that it may come and light up/wake upon
hearing the sound of your laugh.
From deep depths I called to you to come to me
the moonlight I will again light your way to me
they're spread out and melted again
the touch of your hands
I whisper, ask in your ears:
Who is it that calls to you tonight - listen
who sings loudly to you - to your window
who put his soul so you'd be happy
who will put his hand and build you your home
who will give his life, put it underneath you
who will be like dust living at your feet
who will love you of all your lovers
who will save you from all evil spirits
from the deep depths.
From deep depths I called to you to come to me
the moonlight I will again light your way to me
they're spread out and melted
against the touch of your hands
I whisper, ask in your ears:
Who is it that calls to you at tonight ...
Who is it that calls to you at tonight ...
