Mournful tune - The High Windows

Lyrics written by rachel Bluwstein one of Israel's most famous poets in the early 20th century Mournful tune Poem by Rahel Bluwstein Composer Shmulik Kraus Singers: "High Windows" (Shmulik Kraus, Josie Katz, Arik Einstein) Recorded in Olympia (Paris, 1968) Can you hear my voice my far away Can you hear me wherever you are? A voice calls fiercely, a voice in the silently Wishing you were well, wishing you were near? The world is vast, its ways diverse, Brief meetings, partings long, Men, with unsure feet, post on never to return, too weak To find the treasure they have lost. My last day drawing near Of the tears of separation I will await you until My life leaves As Rahel (Rachel in the Bible) did her beloved.
