about

In Hebrew the word “Elohim” means ‘God’. So I came up with the word “Elohima” which can be interpreted as a ‘Female God’, and in this song I sing for her: Elohima my mother, Elohima my love and to Elohima my little girl.

lyrics

אלוהימה
מילים ולחן: אדם בן עזרא

אלוהימה, תגידי מי את באמת
אלוהימה, אילו ידעת כמה רציתי בך היית ודאי נמצאת
כמו בן לאימא אוהב אותך
ישן ומחבק את אלוהימה

אלוהימה מאין לך כל התשובות?
הביטי פנימה וראי אותי שואל אותך את כל השאלות
את סודותייך הכמוסים נמנעת לגלות
פשוט שותקת או שרה שיר

שלכת התכסתה בצבע כבר כמה פעמים
ואת יותר יפה מפעם, או שמא זה אני
אל מול עינייך הרכות צופה בשתיקתך
רוחך נושקת בגופי

תשוקה בוערת מתפתלת מבעירה כל נשימה שבתוכי
את לא נותנת לי לבוא אלייך, גופי עוצר בי מלהבין
מתחת לחלון ביתך הרם כותב לך את שיריי
לאלוהימה - אהובתי

אלוהימה, מאין כל השאלות?
איך את יורה קדימה ולא עוצרת, מפצירה בי לענות
כל כך הרבה יש בתמימות, כל כך הרבה יש בשלמות
של אלוהימה - ילדתי


Elohima
Lyrics and Music: Adam Ben Ezra
English translation: Rotem Yerushalmi & Natalie Marx

Elohima, tell me who you really are
Elohima, if you had only known how I yearned for you, you'd undoubtedly exist
Like a child to his mother
Loving and embracing Elohima in my sleep

Elohima, from where are your answers?
Look within and see me asking you all the questions
Your deepest secrets you avoid to tell
Simply silent or just singing

Leaves wrap themselves with color time and time again
And you're more beautiful then before, or is it just me
In front of your soft eyes, observing your silence
Your spirit caressing my body

A burning desire, winding, scorching my every breath
You don't let me approach you, my body prevents my understanding
Beneath your high window, composing my songs
To Elohima - my love

Elohima, where are all the questions from?
How you fire ahead, never stopping, pleading my replies
There's so much innocence, yet completeness
In Elohima - my child


*Elohima (Meaning) - Female God
