Natan Alterman - שיר משמר (Šir Mišmar) Лирицс транслатион то енглисх
Translation
Song of Guarding
Guard your soul, guard your strength, guard your soul,
Guard your life, your wits, guard your life,
Against a falling wall, against a roof set ablaze, against a dark shadow,
Against a rock from a sling, against a knife, against talons.
Guard your soul against that which burns, against that which cuts,
Against that which is near, like dust on the earth and like the heavens,
Against that which is still, against that which waits and attracts
And puts to death like water from a well and the fire of a stove.
Guard your soul and wits, the hair upon your head,
Guard your skin, guard your soul, guard your life.
The city has turned dark. No-one knows what a nation is.
A nation knows not what a man is, nor a woman.
But outside, but outside, on warm evening,
On a warm evening that floats like laughter and a whisper,
The sky and the sea run on two legs
As does the sunset which has bid farewell to the world
And the flags and the new language
And the menfolk and the women, their wine, their bread.
It is a summer evening, ostensibly
