Sea of Salt 03:21
Sea of Salt Mountains of loneliness A cool southern breeze all the salt idle in place Distant memories Passionately engraved the gust of wind Will return them to me Draw me, with a brush mountains of sand In honey, and in blue if you can Draw for me, with a brush mountains of sand In honey, and in blue if you ca… if you can if you can Over mountains of loneliness Flickering sun And my heart burns within me as the burning bush, burning in the desert Distant memories, passionately written and the painful heart Will burn as an aching heart Draw for me, with a brush mountains of sand In honey, and in blue if you can Draw for me, with a brush mountains of sand In honey, and in blue if you ca… if you can Draw me, with a brush mountains of sand

Sheipatach 03:36
Let it open When we run out of all the paths, in the world walk in them alone When we have no more words to describe what was lost When the eyes open to see When the tears flow to cry To anyone in need, for everything that happened When the heart opens to dream, When the lungs open to breathe Breathe the air of a new way Let them open, the gates of heaven Let the sea open and we'll cross, so from within the water Let the city gates open, let the lips open to sing May the heart open and may the pain dissolve in the world Let it open... gates of heaven May the gates of heaven open May the folded hand open and we can hold hands May the senses open in the body, May we spread our wings and fly Lest we forget to scatter more light in the world May it open... May it open on me..... May it open... May it open for us… May they open - the chasms of the city May it open - those who don't know May it open - the voice of the soul May it open - the ground will shake Let them open - days and nights When the ground shall open, the soul will open All our senses will open mother earth, yes. When the ground shall open, the soul will open All our senses will open mother earth, yes.

Si verias a la rana Si veriash a la rana asentada en l’ornaya Friendo suz buenaz frittas i spartiendo a suz ermanikaz. Ben seni severim Cok seni severim. Si veriash al raton asentado en el kanton, Mundando suz muezizikas i spartiendo a suz ermanikaz. Ben seni severim ... Si veriash al gameyo asentado en el tavlero, Avriendo suz buenaz filaz, maz delgadaz de suz caveyoz. Ben seni severim ...

Abdu loves Randora Abdu loves Randora, it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu Abdu loves Randora, i it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu He waited for her all day, in the middle of the square And when she didn't come, he broke the house At night he ran to the orchard, uprooted trees, howled like a jackal And it is dangerous, when Abdu goes wild Because Abdu loves Randora, it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu Abdu loves Randora, i it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu If it continues like this, it will be terrible The whole village is in shock, like after the storm All the old men and women say there is something to be done We must quickly prepare and wed the two together Because Abdu loves Randora, it's well Abdu loves Randora, it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu Abdu loves Randora, i it's well known And Randora, her spirit may fly, loves Abdu

Kol Ele 03:17
Kol Ele - All of these Breathe alone without needing anyone Open your eyes, see the sky Know more than just one color And how will I give up all of these, and how will I give up all of these, and how will I give up all of these Open a window, breathe some air Find the sea, write a poem keep looking, get up again Find love, I hope I will not give up all these, I will not give up all these, I will not give up all these Open your eyes, underwater Live every minute twice And not giving up, knowing in a moment, sadness shall pass And how will I give up all of these, and how will I give up all of these, and how will I give up all of these see the sea in the distance taste something sweet Think of something that made me laugh

Train to Isfahan Come and look into my eyes Somewhere on the horizon, a future will appear At the bridge between our dreams, I will always wait for you when the sky is gray With me, you will always feel as blossom in spring put your hand in my hair And my hair is scented jasmines Look at my palms The lines of life, as both our scarlet threads intertwined with each other Watch the track of time You and I are sitting on the same train From here to Isfahan Look at my palms The lines of life, as both our scarlet threads intertwined with each other

Sal Sal 04:10
Sal Sal We still contemplate our home**, our hearts are bleeding We never believed that the world would stay as disastrous as it was Years, all these years! This year, last year, and the year before last Every year we say that the year before was better. Oh, how miserable the heart is, because of this wheel of fortune To regret is very agonizing, God knows Oh God, we, bored with pleasures, burned down the house** all together

Ein Li 05:13
Ein Li – I don’t have Days pass over the city Week race by And sometimes oh sometimes The clouds take shapes I will open my eyes and rush Like a horse rejoicing for a new day And sometimes he goes wild racing through the heart of the melody because I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Except in melody Because, I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Except in my soul When the roads are not visible My beats will guide the way and the shadows and the lights dancing over time I will carry my legs to the distant horizon a thousand steps As if they were wings and sometimes God is my witness, sometimes For a moment, I touched the sky because I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Except in my soul Because, I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Just a song and a melody Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh because I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Except in my soul Because, I don't have a place No sea, no land Because, I don't have I do not have a place Just a song and a melody And the sounds fly far away fly far And there aren't many words Because I don't have a place No sea, no land Because I don't have I do not have a place Just a song and a melody

For Our Kids 03:48
For our kids When time passes slowly, but we don't care Look at the sky, breathe some soil to help us breathe Because it isn't reality, it's a dream We escaped from the rifles, to the green fields We'll educate our children, from the beginning appreciate the place Because it isn't a war, it's actually peace Because we are all human, and we are all daughters of eve We came to this world to spread love to help us breathe Because it isn't reality, it's a dream When time passes slowly, but we don't care Look at the sky, breathe some soil to help us breathe Because it isn't a war, it's actually peace

Khi 04:13
Khi -Take In my childhood, on Friday Smells that simmered all night, night Vapors that carry memories not from here Midday sun, through an open window Behind a curtain to the Mediterranean Sea, Surfing the tunnel of time And I'm on a Persian carpet As in the stories of a thousand and one nights Crossing the Middle East in the air And my eyes are stars lit up All day, lit all night Hymns are waiting on the tip of the tongue So take it my eyes, take And start seeing What I saw a long ago So take it take my heart And feel What I felt inside So take my legs take And start running Beyond time so take take my hands And hold tight So you won't fall Mountains of rice, hills of saffron Views and sights I may never see Changing, passing by Past and future in one moment Give me your hand and you'll never be alone again Dreams come true to my eyes And I'm on a Persian carpet As in the stories of a thousand and one nights Crossing the Middle East in the air and starry eyes that light up All day, lit all night Hymns are waiting on the tip of the tongue

Morenica 05:00
Morenica Swarthy they call me My skin was clear Swarthy they call me My skin was clear And in the heat of the summer sun Came to me my darkened skin Swarthy so beautiful In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours Swarthy they call me me the seafarers If they call me again I will go with them Swarthy so beautiful In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours Swarthy calls me the son of a crowned father If he calls me again, I shall go with him Swarthy so beautiful In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours In your eyes, a fire burning, my heart is all yours
