22 May 21 - 04:36 PM (#4107057) Subject: ADD: Road to Eilat (Hey Daroma) From: Joe Offer This song was published "The Road to Eilat in Vol. 3, Ho. 7 Of Sing Out! (1953), and also apparently as a reprint in The Hootenanny Song Book I can't find the Hootenanny book right now, and I don't have that particular issue of Sing Out. It also appears in Lift Every Voice: The Second People's Song Book published by Oak in 1953 - edited by Irwin Silber, page 76. Here are the lyrics: ROAD TO EILAT (words and music by Chaim Chefer) Ktsat daromah live'er sheva, ruach bamidbar noshevet, shvil la a ravah yarad Laradianim ach miharta, et El Omar chish avarta vehineh hu chof Eilat CHORUS Hei daromah, hei daromah hei daromah le Eilat. Hasufa hineh overet Al haderech hi doheret, Lamidbar hagodud sha-at. Jipim kantasim karvach Halochem rosho parvah, Kan bederech le'Eilat! CHORUS Halochaym ahyaf yagaya Al haaretz histaraya Vechashav, hayn kach katoov Et haaretz Beenish - bati, Rock lachem koolah natati, Meeny don vehad yom soof. CHORUS And there's one English verse by Pete Seeger: To the southward now we travel Through this land of rock and gravel, Yet you know just why we sing. Who'll bring life and grass and water, Life to raise our sons and daughters. Youth and life is what we bring. Hey Daroma, Hey Daroma, Hey Daroma, l'Eilat. The Hebrew transliteration is like none I've ever seen before. Maybe it's an attempt at phonetic spelling. More-or-less, it's the same as what # posted above. |

There is good and bad on both sides, and I think we need to find a solution that serves everyone. |
