lyrics: Amos Oettinger |
tune: Meir Noi |
I learnt this song during my scholarship year in Israel, in 1960-61, and see myself singing it around a bon-fire in the mountains of Eilat, among German students, one of the first groups allowed into Israel. The group was organized and led by my teacher Reinhold Mayer. He invited me to interrupt my studies in Jerusalem and help him. |

Thursday morning, 8:00, the phone rings.
It was closed during the night, for a change,
and I had just opened it and gone back to bed.
"Savta! Can you come today?"
I was shocked. I hesitated:
"But your Abba is at home,
and you know I'm coming only on weekends when he's absent."
She explained in well-set language, that there was no reason,
that both Abba and Grandma were together at home.
What could I do?
After having talked also to my son,
I understood, that I needed to follow my principle,
to never initiate, but to always be available.
I promised to come in the afternoon.

Mika
suggests to play "Musical Chairs" though we are just two persons, Mika and me, but according to Mika's "laws": not the person who is the last one to catch a chair, will win, but the one who will evade catching the last chair, and this, of course, is Mika... (see the song about the contest of donkey and cuckou.) On Sept. 8, 1972, also Rosh-Hashanah of that year, I arranged (for the last time ever!!!) a big "party" in our garden, for my husband's 50th birthday! One of the events and games, were "Playing Musical Chairs!" "But! let's omit the principle of the competition!" I suggested. So how did the game end, after all chairs had been removed? I don't remember! |

An e-mail about
Mika from Efrat on April 6, 2011 To my answer (see left) I also added - with concern to Mika's and my longing for each other - that in 2 weeks time there would come a big compensation! |
