Some of Whitacre's work is quite honestly the most beautiful music I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Eyze Sheleg in this collection is unlike anything else.
I. Temuna Temuna belibi charuta; Nodedet beyn or uveyn ofel: Min dmama shekazo et gufech kach ota, Usarech al panaich kach nofel. I. A picture A picture is engraved in my heart; Moving between light and darkness: A sort of silence envelopes your body, And your hair falls upon your face just so. II. Kala kalla Kala kalla Kula sheli, U'vekalut Tishak hili! II. Light bride Light bride She is all mine, And lightly She will kiss me! III. Larov "Larov," amar gag lashama'im, "Hamerchak shebeyneynu hu ad; Ach lifney zman alu lechan shna'im, Uveyneynu nishar sentimeter echad." III. Mostly "Mostly," said the roof to the sky, "the distance between you and I is endlessness; But a while ago two came up here, and only one centimeter was left between us." IV. Eyze sheleg! Eyze sheleg! Kmo chalomot ktanim Noflim nehashama'im; IV. What snow! What snow! Like little dreams Falling from the sky. V. Rakut Hu haya male rakut; Hi hayta kasha. Vechol kama shenista lehishaer kach, Pashut, uvli siba tova, Lakach ota el toch atzmo, Veheniach Bamakom hachi, hachi rach. V. Tenderness He was full of tenderness; She was very hard. And as much as she tried to stay thus, Simply, and with no good reason, He took her into himself, And set her down in the softest, softest place.

I. Temuna
Temuna belibi charuta;
Nodedet beyn or uveyn ofel:
Min dmama shekazo et gufech kach ota,
Usarech al panaich kach nofel.
I. A picture
A picture is engraved in my heart;
Moving between light and darkness:
A sort of silence envelopes your body,
And your hair falls upon your face just so.
II. Kala kalla
Kala kalla
Kula sheli,
U'vekalut Tishak hili!
II. Light bride
Light bride
She is all mine,
And lightly
She will kiss me!
III. Larov
"Larov," amar gag lashama'im,
"Hamerchak shebeyneynu hu ad;
Ach lifney zman alu lechan shna'im,
Uveyneynu nishar sentimeter echad."
III. Mostly
"Mostly," said the roof to the sky,
"the distance between you and I is endlessness;
But a while ago two came up here,
and only one centimeter was left between us."
IV. Eyze sheleg!
Eyze sheleg!
Kmo chalomot ktanim
Noflim nehashama'im;
IV. What snow!
What snow!
Like little dreams
Falling from the sky.
V. Rakut
Hu haya male rakut;
Hi hayta kasha.
Vechol kama shenista lehishaer kach,
Pashut, uvli siba tova,
Lakach ota el toch atzmo,
Veheniach Bamakom hachi, hachi rach.
V. Tenderness
He was full of tenderness;
She was very hard.
And as much as she tried to stay thus,
Simply, and with no good reason,
He took her into himself,
And set her down
in the softest, softest place.
So beautiful...♥
