ILON ILON- Sung & Composed by Country Yossi- Ride Again!

Ilon, Ilon, oh beautiful tree
How shall I bless you for sheltering me
When the days are ablaze with the rays of the sun
You cast your cool shadow and shield everyone
Your fruits are so sweet and your streams softly run
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon.

Ilon, Ilon, you magnificent tree
Your branches reach out as if welcoming me
Like a guest who is blessed with the best there can be
I rest in the shade of your green tapestry
Tell me, how can I bless you; oh, what do you need
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon,
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon.

Shall I bless you with beauty, so rich and so rare?
Your beauty is already beyond compare
Shall I bless you with fruit whose praises are sung?
Your fruits are a-plenty and sweet to the tongue.
Shall I bless you with water that’s already there?
In the bubbling brook, so readily shared
Tell me, how can I bless you, give words to my prayer,
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon.

This, then is my blessing, may it never depart
For my words are sincere and come straight from the heart
For constantly giving, for all that you do
May Hashem grant my blessing and make it come true
May all of your seedlings grow up just like you
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon,
Ilon, Ilon, Ilon.
