Lullaby
(Sung in Hebrew)
The city, all of a sudden, became quiet.
The marketplaces of Persia are silenced.
One only hears a clarinet from a distance.
And the voice of the violin and the double bass.
They whisper, “Don’t get too excited!”
And silence!
“Hush!”
They whisper.
“Don’t get too excited!”
And silence, silence!
It’s true we were running after nonsense.
But here we now finally let go.
Whether one carries a royal crown or just a bucket,
There’s no difference.
We all fall asleep at the end.
And hay-li-lu, hay-lu-li,
Hay-li-la to all of us.
Sleep, oh apple, sleep, oh tree.
Sleep, oh dear king.
There comes the end.
Sleep, oh rivers and banks.
Sleep, oh trumpets and drum.
"And yet perhaps just one more bite…?"
“No, no, we had enough, that’s it”.
All angers, troubles and madness,
And all desires and frustrations,
All are gone now like a passing guest.
“Let them pass! I am asleep!”
No need for questions to be asked.
And no use either.
There are many songs and sounds, too.
But only the lullaby that we know,
That shy one, yes,
Only this lullaby remains with us,
Stays and sings:
“Please leave me alone, leave us all alone!”
Sleep, oh road, there comes the end.
Sleep, oh king, there comes the jester.
Sleep, oh wind and sail.
Sleep, oh antiquities of Persia.
“Let them turn off the lantern!”
“Yes, silence, shush”
