By Aharon Amram
The gates of heaven are open
to my tears
G-d, be merciful to me
And this ache in my heart
How can I win you, love?
Do you even know I exist?
How will I find your love-laced path?
My heart desires only freedom
No one can make me love another
If only my love knew my suffering
And came to my side
Who is the cause of this incredible pain?
Who is the one that knows nothing of my existence?
YACHILVI VEYACHALI
Traditional Yemenite
My sweet love
You are always with me
I have fed you the most succulent of foods
And clothed you in the most expensive brocades
Oh, what a lunatic love!
G-d, help me...
There are those who don't understand
The nature of my lunatic love
Oh, what a lunatic love!
G-d, help me...
I made you swear,
For days and nights
That you would explain, once and for all,
What is happening, happening to us?
There are those who are jealous
That I am all-important to you
You are my special love,
And you revealed to me the secrets of love
You are the center of my thoughts and imagination
