Listen: Aviv Geffen and Avraham Fried in a unifying and moving duet – “Drought”

Aviv Geffen: “This song came to open the door to hope and unity, and to finding a place where we can meet. It was recorded after countless fascinating conversations between Abraham and me. We felt this was a statement we both wanted to keep. A kind of will of a country that wants the people who live in it not to be forgotten. ‘

Avraham Fried: “It could have been another evening of Corona’s routine at my home in Brooklyn, but a video sent to me by a friend from the country made me cry at once. I never met Aviv Geffen and such a meeting was not on the agenda at all. But if there is one thing Corona taught us it is “There is no such thing, there is no such thing” and hearts can meet and connect even tens of thousands of miles away. When I saw Aviv in tears in the video in an interview and wanted to turn off the hate discourse and multiply brotherly love, I could no longer stand back and I answered his call. “

The walls of the mind crack and a ray of light crosses
How beautiful to see the vine bloom in the wilderness
Even a skeptical man carries with him some small prayer
While in the drought as we waited for blessing rains

Even if you worry terribly
Do not lose hope and believe in love
There is no peace and no peace
You too are scared and bitter
I’m your brother do not forget
Even if you are a little distant

Even with my eyes closed I heard your voice
I called me to stay in your solitude tent
Is small flames in one big bonfire
We forgot that while in the form of everything burning burns

Even if you worry terribly
Do not lose hope and believe in love
There is no peace and no peace
You too are scared and bitter
I’m your brother do not forget
Even if you are a little distant
While in drought
