Maya Buskila - Sipur Machur. I placed Hebrew and English subtitles in the video.

Hebrew is NOT my native language. I started learning Hebrew 7 months ago and this is what I could do with what I learned those 7 months and a little help of the google translater. So I'm sure there are mistakes in my translation. Feel free to correct me. I made this video and placed it on youtube because I want to learn from my mistakes. Just be a little nice ;)

  • the right translation would be something like this: its not the rain that comes out of my eyes its not the wind that blows on my face i remember how u used to follow me and that now you are not a part of my life. i sink down, my soul has no way out, i dont know if you're ever coming back i'm afraid of myself, I admit. and soon i will break down and cry its such sold out story you could have been clearer i'm a human being, like everyone else one out of the whole world
  • @kingeh1 Wow thank you! 'my soul has no way out' and 'one out of the whole world' are things I had never seen that way. I always saw the word מבין as 'understands', never saw it the way you translate it, but now you say it, I see it, and I also hear it now I listen to it. This helps me a lot, thanks!

    Wow I watch my video again after I long time and I find so many mistakes. It's really time to make a new version now ;) I'll do it when I have time.

  • There are mistakes but I really liked the vid. (:

    You're doing great.

  • @Tamamy1402 I think I should translate it again. I made this video almost 2 years ago, by now I know much more Hebrew then I did back then ;)

    But thanks :)

  • Okay machur in this song is not "sold out". It is an expression. Machur here means addictive or a story one cannot stop thinking about. Nice try though.

  • @sethdf18

    Ah okay, thanks!

    I didn't know how to translate this, but I found the translation of this song's title somewhere on the internet so I used that translation in the song, so probably that one was wrong. I was already wondering why the translation was so strange ;)

    Thanks for correcting me :)

see all

    ye, hebrew can get a bit complicated when you start studying it. if you ever need help on that let me know :P

  • it doesnt go away, it keeps coming back

    you've changed to someone else

    so exposed and unpredictable

    and what does it depend on now

    i dream of a place where hope

    leaves me, taking me out of you

    i'm not sorry if i'm crying

    cause my tears are pouring out for you as well

    and we're back to the chorus. hopefully that helped you.

    your hebrew was more than decent for someone who studied it for 7 months only. keep it up

  • the problem with google translate is that it cant hear the word and only read it. so some words look the same but you read them differently.

    like the word מבין. without any context it has 2 meanings- first one is understands in present time and you read it as "mevin". the 2nd option is "out of" and you read it as mi-ben. like the line "achat mi-ben kol ha-olam" meaning "one out of the whole world"

  • @Myriejj you actually got it right the first time. the meaning of the phrase sipur machur is a story which ending was already decided by someone else. like a sold out boxing fight, where the result was already decided before the match even started. so sold out story is a good translation to the whole thing

  • היא פרפורמרית אדירה!

  • מאייה לארוויזיון

    כל מי שחושב כמוני לייק !
