תהיה איתי תהיה לבבי תיתן לי lyrics

“תהיה איתי תהיה לבבי תיתן לי עוד ועוד ועוד כמו כמו אחד שהוא שמן כפליים וצמח במים כמו זרע קטן שהפך לאילן וצומח בגן ושמח בגן”

Tehiye iti tehiye levavi titen li od ve'od ve'od kmo kmo echad shehu shamen kaflayim vetzamach bamayim kmo zera katan she'hafach le'ilan vetzome'ach bagan vesame'ach bagan

Be with me, be kind, give me more and more and more like like one who is twice as fat and grew in water like a small seed that became a tree and grows in the garden and is happy in the garden

The opening lines express a deep desire for continuous giving and presence, setting a tone of longing and dependence.

“תהיה איתי תהיה לבבי תיתן לי עוד ועוד ועוד כמו כמו אחד שהוא שמן כפליים וצמח במים כמו זרע קטן שהפך לאילן וצומח בגן ושמח בגן”

Tehiye iti tehiye levavi titen li od ve'od ve'od kmo kmo echad shehu shamen kaflayim vetzamach bamayim kmo zera katan she'hafach le'ilan vetzome'ach bagan vesame'ach bagan

Be with me, be kind, give me more and more and more like like one who is twice as fat and grew in water like a small seed that became a tree and grows in the garden and is happy in the garden

The metaphor of a small seed growing into a happy tree in a garden symbolizes growth, fulfillment, and contentment derived from the requested affection.

“ושמן הוא בגן עם המון שומן שנוזל בגן ומהמכנסיים נוזל והוא כמו אילן עץ גדול ויפה ושמן וזקן שנוטף לו שרף בראש הקצה”

Veshamen hu bagan im hamon shuman shenozel bagan u'mehamichnasayim nozel ve'hu kmo ilan etz gadol veyafeh veshamen vezaken shenotef lo saraf berosh hakatzah

And he is fat in the garden with a lot of fat that drips in the garden and drips from his pants and he is like a tree, a big and beautiful and fat and old tree from which sap drips at the very top

The imagery of a 'fat and old tree from which sap drips' is a vivid, somewhat unusual description of abundance and perhaps maturity, suggesting a rich, overflowing state.
