Translated lyrics
Snow on my city, the whole night rests My love has left for the warm lands Snow on my city and the night is cold From the warm lands he will bring me a date The honey of the fig, the sweetness of carob And a caravan of camels, laden with all good things Behold, the sunshine of my heart will return And from there, he will bring an orange Snow on my city, resting like a tallit From the warm lands, what have you brought me? Snow on my city, snow on my face And within the fruit are all my longings.
