Texty: Esther Ofarim. Esther Ofarim 1977. Waking Up.

Is that the morning light I see,
shining in on me,
must be waking up.
It's been so long
since I've seen daybreak,
I must be awake
again.

I don't wanna sleep through my whole life,
I don't want to lose my soul in the night.
Just wanna sing to the morning light,
I must be waking up.

The nightbird sings
and shows his scarlet wings,
he is waking up,
hear him waking up!
Every day he's got a brand new prayer to sing,
when he is waking up the day.

Don't wanna sleep through his whole life,
doesn't want to lose his soul in the night.
Just wanna sing to the morning light,
he is waking up
