גבר הולך לאיבוד [Gever Holech Leibud] [English translation]

A man getting lost through the balcony,

Among the ferns.

He sways when the wind comes in.

He's being left behind,

He falls in autumn,

Don't be mad,

He's in love.

Go to him sometimes,

He's calm when you're around.

He has some strange ways,

You love him.

A man leaves through the balcony sometimes,

Humming an old tune,

Getting scratched in the neck by the loquat tree,

Getting pinched by the lily,

Mud gets stuck to his heels, don't be mad,

He's in love.

He comes to you sometimes,

You're calm when he caresses you,

He has some strange ways,

To tell you that he loves you.

Sometimes the balcony is empty,

Like on a Saturday,

And a southern wind quietly enters,

And there's no one there.

You're thinking of him,

And there's a cat in the grass, its tale slipping upward...

May he'll come to you suddenly,

Say nothing, and caress you,

He has some strange ways,

To tell you that he loves you.
