Songs/
Yom Hazikaron
My Young Brother Yehudah

Lyrics: Ehud Manor

Music: Yochanan Zarai

My young brother Yehudah,
Do you hear?
Do you know?
The sun still rises every morning
And its' light is white,
And in the evening the wind scatters
The leaves of the garden.
The first rain
Came down two days ago
On Tuesday evening,
And the sky is visible again,
In the puddle on the main road.

My young brother Yehudah,
Do you hear?
Do you know?
Your kids are in the garden,
They're learning a new song already,
And in high school the students
Are again training on the field,
Winds of sunset
Howl on the balcony
The songs of autumn,
And Mom secretly waits
That maybe a letter will arrive.

My young brother Yehudah,
Do you hear?
Do you know?
All your good friends
Carry your image with them,
And in all the tanks on the border lines
You are with them.
My good brother,
I remember your eyes,
And they solve riddles.
And my baby son is handsome like you,
I will name him in your name, Yehudah.
