Night of Roses (or Evening of Roses)

Victor Jara

Noche de rosas (o Erev shel shoshanim)

Erev shel shoshanim
Netse' na el habustan.
Mor behsamin u-levonah
le-raglech mifthan.

Laylah yored le'aht
Veruach shoshan noshvah
havah 'elchash lach shir ba-l'at
zemer shel 'ahavah

Shachar homah yona
Ro'shech male' tlalim
Pich 'el-haboqer shoshannah
'Eqt'fennu li.

Night of Roses (or Evening of Roses)

Evening of roses
Let's go to the garden
Myrrh, spices, and frankincense
Are a gift for your feet

Night descends slowly
And a rose-scented breeze
Come, I will whisper a song softly
A love song

Dawn breaks, a dove
Your head is crowned with dew
Open to the morning, rose
I will pick it for you.
