A Tribe of Brothers and Sisters
70 years on the road I'm traveling and looking At what was and what will be And how my soul is still this nation From catching the sunrise From the sunrises of Masada From Jerusalem with its palaces From the beaches of the Kinneret From the parties of Tel Aviv My father dreamed and prayed To live in the Land of Israel Today my children ask me What is the story of Israel? Chorus: This is my home, this is my heart And I will not leave Our ancestors, our roots We are the flowers, the melodies A tribe of brothers and sisters The same neighborhood, the same street Jacob's twelve sons Brought together after their wanderings In the place of their longing A man is his native landscape He digs lines in the palm of his hand Between the prayers and the oaths The smell of orchard of citrus And in my mother's eyes I'll always find my place The guitar is playing An ancient tune that is right This is a my home This is my heart And I will not leave Our ancestors, our roots And we are the flowers, the melodies A tribe of brothers and sisters From the beginning, everything is sewn Patches, patches of the story Like two words, they connect The golden needle of a poet Here I am from, here I belong And every friend of mine is like a brother You are beating in my heart I am east and west This is my home This is my heart And I will not leave Our ancestors, our roots We are the flowers, the melodies A tribe of brothers and sisters This is my home This is my heart And I will not leave Our ancestors, our roots We are the flowers, the melodies A tribe of brothers and sisters |
