Paroles et traduction אברהם פריד - Ale Katan

Ale Katan

Ani hu etz me′od zaken usva yamim
Ra'iti kvar ruchot azot ure′amim
Atah aleh katan mitnoe'a
Batu'ach be′atzmo, hakol yode′a
Kach itcha tzeidah laderech, et nisyoni
Al tezal'zel, ulai zeh kol mah sheyesh li
Ki yesh yamim yafim hakol pore′ach
Veyesh sha'ot kashot hakol bore′ach
Tach'zik chazak aleh katan sheli
Ki lo tamid hakol bachutz bahir
Veru′ach sa'ar vesufah karah
Tiz'kor vetit′chazek ani itcha!
Tach′zik chazak aleh katan sheli
Ve'lo tamid hakol nachon hakol muvan
Chaim zeh lo shi′ur cheshbon zeh gam miv'chan
Achshav aleh katan hakol ragu′a
Ach merachok ulai anan magi'a
Kach itcha tzeidah laderech, et birkati
Chatzi hakos hi mele′ah tiz'kor tamid
Uk'shehashemesh el hayam shoka′at
Al tid′ag machar hi shuv zorachat!

Little Tree

I am a very ancient tree
I have seen many winds, some mild, some fierce
You are a little tree, so trusting
Confident in yourself, knowing everything
So let my experience guide you
Don't be anxious, for this may be all I have
For there are good days when everything flourishes
And there are hard times when everything withers
Stay strong, my little tree
For not everything is always rosy on the outside
And a stormy wind and a fierce gale
Remember and take strength for I am with you!
Stay strong, my little tree
And not everything is always right, everything is tested
Life is not a measurement, calculation is also a trial
Now, little tree, everything is calm
But perhaps a storm is approaching in the distance
So let my blessing guide you
The glass is half full, always remember
And when the sun sets in the sea
Don't worry, it will rise again tomorrow!
