Lyrics

Text: "Every Rose" by Zelda
Translation: John Zorn

every rose is an island of the promised peace, eternal peace. within every rose dwells a sapphire bird whose name is “veitetu*”. and it seems so near the light of that rose, so near its scent so near, the silence of its leaves, so near that island- take a boat and break through that sea of fire.

כל שושנה היא אי של השלום המבטח השלום הנצחי בכל שושנה מתגוררת צפור ספירית “ששמה ”וכתתו ונדמה כה קרוב אור השושנה כה קרוב ניחוחה כה קרוב שקט העלים כה קרוב אותו אי - קח סירה וחצה את ים האש

translator's note: "veitetu" (lit. "and they shall beat") references "and they shall beat their swords into plowshares." (Isaiah 2:4)
