Jackie Prestie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ozemet et einai lmishma ha yeri
Mozia kol sheaga
Ah bein rega mithalphe le yehose
Akol avor
She hai be siot
Mitgagat mikol alev

Mieahelt leholam she hazlo dimotav

Halev kvar met

Atikva
Mitgagat ad keav

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jackie Prestie's Love Theme are in Hebrew and present a beautiful and complex metaphor for love. The opening lines, "Ozemet et einai lmishma ha yeri / Mozia kol sheaga," can be interpreted to mean "I close my eyes and hear the moon's voice / It captures everything." This could suggest that love is something that is felt rather than seen, and that it has a mysterious power to encompass everything.

The next lines, "Ah bein rega mithalphe le yehose / Akol avor," translate to "For a moment I am lost in thought / Anything can happen." This could mean that love is unpredictable and can take us by surprise. The following line, "She hai be siot / Mitgagat mikol alev," is particularly poignant, as it means "She is in the secrets / Yearned for by all hearts." This speaks to the idea that love is something that is desired by everyone, but often hidden or unspoken.

The final lines, "Mieahelt leholam she hazlo dimotav / Halev kvar met / Atikva / Mitgagat ad keav," can be translated to "It dances forever, leaving its tears behind / The heart has already died / But there is hope / It is yearning until the end." Together, these lines suggest that love is eternal, even though it may cause pain and loss, and that it gives us hope even in the face of heartbreak.
