Lyrics
- Hashemesh Sheli (My Sun) -
My sun has been gone for a week
found at a distance of tens of thousands
Lights up my path and sinks when she is alone.
The dark night sneaks and engulf everyone
Until the dawn rises and gets up
And she begins once again to embrace the day with her wings.
My sun has been gone for a week
Saying that she really innocently
love me and goes to sleep without me.
I miss her warmth and beauty
But now she is warming up a star
She scatters her light to everyone who comes in contact.
Come sun Come sun
I have no peace, only to see daylight.

“The music and composition produce a pleasant acoustic melody, which connects to the rhythm that clamps the vocal duet and puts it on the kind of folk road that is independent of time and trend... the sounds and the guitar strum expresses longing in a caressing way that says - You don't have to bring out old from new, and this old sound at least musically made from authentic original material."
- Yossi Hersonsky, YossMusic about the song "Ahareha"
"I listened to your songs, your musical arrangements and your singing - pure pleasure!
I hope the people of Israel get to know your work."
