about

A gorgeous song by the wonderful Iranian-Israeli singer RITA.
I spent many months in Israel and was introduced to this beautiful abstract song with incredible lyrics about dying of the sword for one that you love.
I hope you also enjoy it.

lyrics

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

A Deep Blue Evening [Rita]

A deep blue evening
Hangs a reddish earring for impression
And smoke’s inflorescence
China tree’s essence [azedarac]
And simmers in a whisper
Maybe this time, maybe this time

How blue is the evening
How deep, god knows
Why don’t you surprise
Pure & Simple
Like looking for incessantly
To quench again, to quench again

Ch
All the blue, the sadness
All the endless depth
This time I feel like
Falling on the sword
To die on you
To die, to die on you
In memory of an evening that will not return

A deep blue evening
Hangs a moon shape like earring
Just stand in the doorway
Without an early notice
Like looking for the prey
To quench again, to quench again


Ch
All the blue, the sadness
All the endless depth
This time I feel like
Falling on the sword
To die on you
To die, to die on you
In memory of an evening that will not return


Instrumental ……………….just stand on the doorway
……………….like looking for a prey

Ch
All the blue, the sadness
All the endless depth
This time I feel like
Falling on the sword
To die on you
To die, to die on you
In memory of an evening that will not return

This time I feel like
To fall on the sword
To die, to die on you
Aaaiii, to die on you

This time I feel like
To fall on the sword
To die, to die on you
Aai, Aai, aai

This time I feel like
This time, To die on you
To die, To die on you
Aaaai, aaaiiiiiiiiiii
