Esther Ofarim - Voyage

Through unknown waters
I travel abord my ship
Simpling many others that float on oceans and seas
for a long time I loaded my ship with all I possessed

Then I painted it with China colours
taking care to paint it too

And after I waited for a long time
finally came the hour to leave port

Time goes by

And I start fixing my goals
But not that they bland at the start

I now sit in front of this voyage of mine
with no fear of the landing at all

I know my ship's value
and I know the values I carry with me

I travel on
and you keep on missing to me

The voyage is oh alive
and the ship is yourself
A ship that's never thrown anchor
and a ship that never will do

Nor the anchor of feelings
nor the anchor of desires
Nor the anchor of feelings
nor the anchor of desires

For you shall never give up
For you shall never give up
You shall never tire of dreaming your dreams
You shall never tire of dreaming your dreams
