Yehuda Amichai - יהודה עמיחי - Ein Yahav lyrics

A night drive to Ein Yahav in the Arabah. A drive in the rain. Yes, in the rain. There, I met people who grow date palms. There, I saw great tamarisk trees and great risk trees There, I saw hope barbed like barbed wire And I said to myself: It is the truth. Hope must be Like barbed wire to keep out our despair. Hope must be a minefield.
