    Default I have a dream

    This is a really beautiful song, my friends...

    I even, Thank God, dreamed with it in the background of my dream one morning...

    Can someone please translate it into English ?

    Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mqZBMGIO2A

    If you can provide the English with the Hebrew , line by line like this:

    להתאהב או לוותר
    Lahitahave o lavater
    To fall in love, or to give up

    That would be so wonderful !

    I think this song needs to be translated into video form...
    I really love it....

    Have a beautiful day and thanks once again!

    God bless,

    Yodelinged

    Here is the song :-)
    I'm sorry if the way I've written it looks different to his singing...he has a really Yemeni accent and it's hard to write it exactly like he pronounces it...but the way I've written it is also the right way to pronounce it (the way the vaaaast majority of people pronounce Hebrew today) :-p


    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    שבו את מבינה אותי
    Shebo at mevina oti
    In it, you understand me
    ברגעים הכי קשים
    Barega'im hachi kashim
    In the hardest moments
    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    ובו את ואני
    Vebo at ve'ani
    And in it, you and I
    מתחת לחופה עומדים
    Mitachat lachupa omdim
    Standing under the chupa (Jewish weddings are conducted under a "chupa")
    יש לי חלום.
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream

    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    ובו שבועת אמת
    Vebo shvoat emet
    And in it, an oath of truth
    זה לזו אנו נשבעים
    Ze lezo anu nishba'im
    Him to her, we swear
    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    ובו הביתה אני שב
    Vebo habayta ani shav
    And in it I return home
    אליך ואל הילדים
    Elayich ve'el hayladim
    To you and to the kids
    יש לי חלום.
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream

    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    שבו אני בוטח בך
    Shebo ani bote'ach bach
    In it, I depend on you
    יותר מבעצמי
    Yoter mi'be'atzmi
    More than on myself
    יש לי חלום
    Yesh li chalom
    I have a dream
    בו כמו שאני אוהב אותך
    Bo kmo she'ani ohev otach
    In it, how I love you
    גם את אותי.
    Gam at oti
    You (love) me the same.

    יש לי תקווה שתשתני
    Yesh li tikva she'tishtani
    I have hope that you'll change
    אם לא למעני
    Im lo lema'ani
    If not for my sake
    אבל למען שנינו
    Aval lema'an shneinu
    But for the sake of us both
    יש לי תקווה
    Yesh li tikva
    I have hope
    שבעזרת האמונה
    She'be'ezrat ha'emuna
    That with the help of faith
    נוכל להגשים חלומנו
    Nuchal lehagshim chalomeinu
    We'll be able to fulfil our dream
    יש לי תקווה.
    Yesh li tikva
    I have hope
