Felipa Lyr Req: Songs about Israel and Palestine (14) RE: Lyr Req: Songs about Israel and Palestine 10 Dec 23


Israeli singer Itay Benda is resident in Los Angeles, California and has forged friendships with Iranians (LA has a large Iranian population). He recently posted a Hebrew song translated to Farsi. OCEAN OF TEARS - Yam Shel Dmaot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ_fS6WVba4

Hebrew words and translation at https://lyricstranslate.com/en/%D7%99%D7%9D-%D7%A9%D7%9C-%D7%93%D7%9E%D7%A2%D7%95%D7%AA-sea-tears.html

In this context, it could be understood as a song of exile
Long have been the nights since you've left,
The spring, like the autumn, is so grey,
And in my heart memories that you already forgot,
And a pray, an honest pray you'll return.

A sea of tears in my eyes,
My heart shouts out, 'return to me',
My voice breaks down the silence,
Will you hear?
Will you hear?
