This is Die Drei Kantoren’s second CD, consisting of Chazzanut, Yiddish and Chasidic melodies, Israeli songs, and Sepharadic piyutim – all in original arrangements. We are happy to feature some wonderful guest artists who made this second album even richer in sound and inspiration. Two of the pieces in this album – Pitchu Li and Elu Dvarim – were composed especially for us by our very own Ido Ben-Gal and Assaf Levitin. Our dozens of concerts in Jewish communities and in festivals in Germany and abroad motivated us to get back into the recording studio as quickly as possible. For this we are very thankful.

Noah – we will never forget how, in the rain and storm
Noah – you collected all the animals.
Two of each kind,
The lion, the mammoth, the camel, the carp,
Even the hippopotamus.
How you opened the window
And the dove came
From the white skies.
Noah – how long are we going to keep on sailing?
Noah – the windows have been shut for two months now.
And we’re running out of air,
The lion, the mammoth, the camel, the carp,
Even the hippopotamus.
Crack open the window
And send the dove
To the white skies.
Noah – what are you worrying about? The rain stopped.
Noah – open the window, maybe there is a rainbow
And we could all see it
The lion, the mammoth, the camel, the carp,
Even the hippopotamus.
Crack open the window
And send the dove
To the white skies.
Noah – the dove already came back with the olive branch
Noah – let us out so we could go back home
Because we’re tired of each other
The lion, the mammoth, the camel, the carp,
Even the hippopotamus.
Crack open the window
So we could fly to the white skies
Together with the dove.
נח - לא שכחנו איך בגשם ובסער
נח - לתיבה אספת את חיות היער.
שתיים, שתיים מכל מין,
האריה והממותה, הגמל והשיבוטה,
וגם ההיפופוטם.
איך פתחת את הצוהר
ומתוך התכלת הלבנה
באה היונה.
נח - כמה זמן נמשיך לשוט על פני המים?
נח - כל החלונות סגורים כמעט חודשיים.
וכבר אין לנו אויר,
לאריה ולממותה, לגמל ולשיבוטה,
וגם להיפופוטם.
פתח לרגע את הצוהר
ואל תוך התכלת הלבנה
שלח את היונה.
נח - מה אתה דואג, הן כבר חדל הגשם.
נח - פתח את החלון, אולי הופיעה קשת
ויראו אותה כולם
האריה והממותה, הגמל והשיבוטה,
וגם ההיפופוטם.
פתח לרגע את הצוהר
ואל תוך התכלת הלבנה
שלח את היונה.
נח - היונה כבר שבה עם עלה של זית
נח - תן לנו לצאת ולחזור לבית
כי כבר נמאסנו זה על זה
האריה על הממותה, הגמל על השיבוטה,
וגם ההיפופוטם.
פתח לרגע את הצוהר
ונעוף לתכלת הלבנה
כך עם היונה.
