lyrics

Film medley

Kol harhovot kvar reikim (All the streets are already empty)
hasimtaot kulan sh’lo (the alleys are all his)
Shuv hu l’vado (again he’s alone)
Shuv rak im tzilo (again only with his shadow)
Kol harhovot kvar reikim (All the streets are already empty)
hasimtaot kulan sh’lo (the alleys are all his)
Ein ma l’maher or l’aher (no need to rush or be late).

Lu l’hashiv nitan (If it was only possible to turn back)
Et m’hogei hazman (the hands of time)
Eize olam nifla (what a wonderful world)
Hu haya boneh lo (he would have built for himself)
Rak l’hashiv nitan (only if it would have been possible to turn back)
Et sh’halaf mizman (that which has passed a long time ago)
Eikh haolam az haya mishtane (Oh how the world would have changed).

BaJumalan hai mashiach hazaken (In Jumalan lives old Mashiach),
Levad babayit bli isha bli ben (alone in his house without wife or son).
Agar sam kesef ad gil shivim shana (He saved his money in a jar for 70 years),
Bishvil liknot isha l chatuna (to buy a bride).

Kama dinar asaf? Alla yodea (How many dinars did he save? Allah knows).
Ulai shlosha dinar? Ulai pi meya? (Perhaps 3 dinars? Perhaps a hundred fold?)
Ulai shloshim dinar? Ulai kiflayim? (Perhaps 30 dinars? Perhaps double that?)
Ulai shalosh meyot? Nishto l'chayim! (Perhaps 300? We'll drink lechayim!)
Tov lamashiach tov (It's good for Mashiach, it's good).
Alla yavi lo mazal tov (Allah will bring him Mazal tov).
Tov lamashiach tov (It's good for Mashiach, it's good).
Alla yavi lo mazal tov (Allah will bring him Mazal tov).

Bakasba bahatsi hayom (In the Kasbah in the middle of the day)
keshe hashuk patuah (when the market is open)
hayti kakha stam over vehahze matuh (I used to walk just like that with a proud chest)
kulam omrim eize kanon over basimtaot (Everyone says what a "cannon" goes by in the alley)
osim shalom mikol halon (Waving Shalom from every window)
Kol hakavod (Respect)!
kulam hayu yodim az tov meod (Everyone used to know back then very well)
Lemi yesh yoter kavod (Who has more respect).
kulam hayu yodim az tov meod (Everyone used to know back then very well)
Lemi yesh yoter kavod (Who has more respect).

Carnaval, banahal carnaval (Carnival, at the stream there's a carnival)
Mi shelo yavo haval (It's a shame if anyone misses it)!


Carnaval, banahal carnaval (Carnival, at the stream there's a carnival)
Mi shelo yavo haval (It's a shame if anyone misses it)!
