Whispering Wind

Andria Warmflash Rosenbaum

English Lyrics

Whispering wind
Whisper to me
Open my eyes for it could have been me
Counted and numbered and stripped of dignity
To think that it could have been me

Children were lost
Before they could dream
Visions were shattered by yesterday's screams
Battered and beaten and strewn about as waste
Disposed of in scheduled haste

Refrain:
Ages of dust
Ages ago
Over the hills
The breeze gently blows
Six million stars
Sent up in smoke
Six million souls
But nobody spoke

Stories I hear
Pictures I see
All blend together in death's imagery
Remember the nightmare that they were sentenced to
For yes, it could happen to you

Refrain:
Ages of dust
Ages ago
Over the hills
The breeze gently blows
Six million stars
Sent up in smoke
Six million souls
But nobody spoke

Stories I hear
Pictures I see
All blend together in death's imagery
Remember the nightmare that they were sentenced to
For yes, it could happen to you

Translation

The piece was first recorded by Ramaz where Andria taught. It was later adapted by Haftr's awesome choir lead by Sandy Sudberg and the Ani Ma'amin part was added.(Caroll Goldberg); When I was taught this song, the lines: Remember the nightmare that they were sentenced to For yes, it could happen to you were taught as "Here hidden from harm, life's without a guarantee, and YES it could happen to me" (Jen Stosser - Australia)
