Yored Ha'Erev (Evening Falls)

Yored haerev umatsif basheket
Bakhalonot batim yesh or kalush
Ze shvil afar khashukh movil el habait
Unevikhot klavim koryim leshalom
Ani holekhet le ibud erev erev
Umekhaehet le atsmi kshe nizkeret
Ze lo dome bikhlal lema shekhashavti
Kshe dimianti shenihie gdolim
Veze margish kol kakh pashut veragua
Va ein sufot shemeirot lekhaim
Veze lo ma shetamid khalamti
Aval ze maspik tov bishvili
Ata zokher bikhlal dvarim shekhalamnu
Mekomot yafim arim rekhokot
Hakol yihie tamid letovateinu
Veaz nikhie et kol hakhalomot
Veal tavtiakh li shepaam nihie od
Milim kaele nishtafot im hazman
Hakol miskhak, khaim shlemim neelmu kvar
Beyam shel avudim hainu od gal

Yored Ha'Erev (Evening Falls)

Evening falls, darkness descends upon the alley,
In some windows, a faint light shines,
This is the path, a quiet sigh, that leads to home,
And the sound of keys invites peace.
I am walking towards the evening's embrace,
And my heart aches with longing when I remember,
This is not the house I had envisioned at all,
When I dreamed our dreams would be grand.
And this feeling, so simple yet bitter,
And there are no guarantees in life.
And this is not what I had always wished for,
But it is enough for me, more than enough.
Do you remember, at all, the things we imagined,
Beautiful places, distant cities?
Everything would always turn out for the best,
And we would live out all our dreams.
And you didn't tell me that we would be here,
Words like dreams, lost with time.
Everything is forgotten, our perfect lives gone forever.
In our time of innocence, we were still strangers.
