fdS17. Earthmates, both near & far
This time I want to sing the original words (in Hebrew)
& let you figure out how to fit my words to it. In my song, I use the
verse melody twice before doing the chorus melody twice. (The chorus
starts with "Lila yored le-at".)
Erev shel shoshanim 1 verse & 1 chorus
Earthmates, both near & far, I want you all to know
I am so very desperate, desperate for my heart to grow
[verse melody again] that if you can see any ways, any ways I might
improve
in living love & tracking truth, in living love & tracking
truth,
[chorus] please o please tell me straight or you will hurt us both
because if you do not tell me straight, I fear that you will stunt our
growth!
[repeat entire chorus]
Then come dance with me, dear friends, while the roses at
twilight call.
Let's dance well a life of peace & joy & learn well
its song of love.
[repeat this entire verse before singing the new
chorus]
[new chorus] Then let's sing out with all our hearts
& in every thing we do,
let's sing till the rafters ring, dear
friends, ring with that song of love!
[repeat entire new chorus,
then start again from the top or from the verse, & continue until bed
time!]
