Lyrics and music: Yosseff Sarig
Arranged by: Dov Carmel
Sung by: Miri, Hanna and Andy
Guitar: Andy

The silence falls on the city at dusk, like a gliding kestrel above the valleys. Red-hot sun kisses the roofs, the towers and the walls. I saw a city bathed in light, rising in rainbow colours. She is plucking on my biblical harp. I saw a city bathed in light.

Hasheket shuv tzoneakh kan mishmei ha erev
ki deiyat daya meal hatehomot
veshemesh aduma nosheket lahat kherev
et hapsagot hamigdalim vehakhomot

Chorus:
raiti ir otefet or
vehi ola bishlal tsivei hakeshet
vehi nogenet bi kenevel heasor
raiti ir otefet or

hine zo khel hatzel mi bain gvaot ha-oren
karev ba seter keohev el hashkhunot
umul pa nav kritzot ribo enei ha or-hen
lefeta nif kekhu elav kenifamot

Chorus
Bidmamat ashmoret akhrona noshemet
Uviktifat shkhakim resis akhron makhvir
Akh shkhar kvar kipat zahav shela odemet
Lemagao hakham shel or tsair
