Erev Shel Shoshanim, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Erev Shel Shoshanim is an Israeli love song that was played at my mother’s confirmation and eventually the inspiration for my name. The title translates to “Evening of Roses”
English translation of the lyrics:
It is an evening of roses
Let us go out to the garden
Myrrh, Spices, and Frankincense
Are as a carpet under your feet
Night falls gently
And a wind of roses blows
I’ll whisper a soft song for you
A song of pure love
Dawn and the dove coos
Your hair is full of dewdrops
Your lips are as roses unto the morning
I will pick them for myself
Night falls gently
And a wind of roses blows
I’ll whisper a soft song for you
A song of pure love
