Текст песни Noa - Marionettes

Lyrics: Leah Goldberg 

Music: Nini / Dor 


Transliteration:


Zeh hayah miktsat banali

Al mirpeset karnevalit

Shepanas shachach aleyah

Lehashgiach be'oro

Nifgeshu behesach da'at:

Hu dover, vehi shomaat,,

Hi pieretah -

hu piero.

Veulay hi lo pieretah,

Veulay, ulay pashut,

Hi bubah, marioneta,

Shemoshchim otah bechut.

Im zeh kach o im acheret

Im acheret o im kach

Hi, vaday, mecho'eret,

"Gizratech nechmedet gveret!"

Hu omer vene'enach.

Aval hi me'od shoteket,

Ut'shuvah befiah ein,

Umakah beshot hasheket

Hu matchil lehitchanen:

"Biglalech ered el shachat,

"Mabataich kemiklachat,

"Me'alay beyom tamuz -

"Min harosh ad ktse hana'al,

"At toseset bi kera'al,

"tni li, tni li, lu lerega,

"milibech chatsi achuz!"

Az bekol rachok vezar lo

Beoktavah elyonah,

Kimsacheket be"don karlos"

Hi omeret veonah:

S'ancor si piange in cielo

Piangi sul mio dolore

E porta il pianto mio

Al trono del signor

"Lu teda, kamah nil'eiti

"Set goral marioneti

"Hen atah shoteh, piero!

"Hatipshut lecha masoret,

"Vlihiot misken tsuveita

"Ad ichlu kol hadorot"...

Zeh hayah miktsat banali

Al mirpeset karnevalit

Shepanas shachach aleyah

Lehashgiach beoro

Nifgeshu behesach daat:

Hu dover, vehi shomaat,

Hi pieretah -

hu piero.


Translation:

In a very silly costume 

On a carnivalish street 

Where the street-lamp was 

Particularly low... 


They met as-a-matter-of-fact 

She would listen, he would chat 

She - pierrette 

He - pierrot 


Perhaps she's really not pierrette 

Maybe that is just the thing 

She's a dull marionette 

That you handle with a string 


But oh, what difference does it make 

For to pierrot's adoring eye 

She really is good looking 

"Ma'am, you're positively cooking" 

He will tell her, 

with a sigh. 


But she is very quiet 

It is clear she'll never heed 

She must be on a verbal diet, 

So he begins to plead: 


"You will drive me down to hell 

With the shower of your glances 

Burning rain of cruel romances 

That is tearing me apart! 

From my hat to my shoe-lace 

I am poisoned and disgraced 

Would you please give me a taste 

A small percentage of your heart!" 


Then suddenly, she spoketh 

In a very high register, 

As if she were performing in Don Carlos 

She said: "mister... 



(opera, in Italian…) 


“Do you know I'm sick and tired 

Of a fate of being wired 

Oh, pierrot, your thickness is a crime! 

You've fallen to a foolish swoon 

Pathetically you cringe and croon 

Your destiny is sealed, for all of time!” 


In a very silly costume 

On a carnivalish street 

Where the street-lamp was particularly low... 


They met as-a-matter-of-fact 

She would listen, he would chat 

She - pierrette 

He - pierrot
