I have been searching everywhere for the translation of "Yom Huledet" (simply, "birthday") by Barry (sometimes Berry) Sakharof. I have a version he did with Infected Mushroom and it's one of the best tracks I've ever heard. Barry is a Eurovision Song Contest entrant from Israel so it's a bit different for him collaborate with IM, esp on the song he played at Eurovision.
The song is written in Hebrew, so if anyone out there can translate Hebrew Script to Hebrew in English Letters and also to straight English, I'd be most grateful for such a deed.
Just a side note, if anyone does indeed like tekno, trance, etc, (the more psychadellic varieties), then the IM/Barry Sakharof song would go down very will indeed. If you *zaa or the likes, it'll be named: Infected Mushroom & ברי סחרוף - יומולדת (good old hebrew screwin with windows).
the song, in hebrew and hebrew script is as follows:
Birthday / יומולדת (yom huledet)
היום יום הולדת
תראי יש פה סוד חדש ישן
לפרוס את הלחם
לגעת במשהו קצת מושלם
כבר אמצע הלילה
חשבתי אולי כדי לישון
אבל משהו תקוע
תקוע עמוק בתוך הגרון
נכון את יודעת
כל כך משגעת
לפני שאת בורחת }x2
בואי בלי פחד
קחי אותי ככה...
היום יום הולדת
חשבתי כמעט על כל הפרטים
הזמנתי לך חדר
שמים כחולים עם כוכבים
נכון את יודעת
כל כך משגעת
לפני שאת בורחת
בואי בלי פחד
קחי אותי ככה...
אההה!

today is a birthday
look here there is an old-new secret.
to cut the bread
to touch something a bit perfect.
its already midnight
i thought maybe its time to sleep
but something is stuck
stuck deep in the throat.
its true you know
so fabulous
before you run
come without no fear
take me like this
today is a birthday
i thought about almost all the details
i booked you a room
blue sky with stars
its true you know....

You will have to excuse me here but my hebrew is just a tad bit rusty.
As I haven't done much reserch of late , since trying to get a friend in Israel to interpert The dead sea scrolls, which were written in ancient Hebrew that had no vowels among other ancient lingo.
But this is what I came up with, which is slightly different to what dos-x came up with.
Today birthday
Show there is here a new old secret
To deploy the bread
To touch the something a little absolute
Already middle tonight
I thought maybe in order to sleep
But something stuck
Stuck deep amid the throat
Right you know
So maddens
Before you flee
Before you flee
Come without fear
Take me like that.
Today birthday
I thought almost for the specifications
My order you room
Blue heavens with stars
Right you know
So maddens
Before you flee
Before you flee
Come without fear
Take me like that.
Aha her!
Hope this helps.

Although this thread is a few years old, I'll still give this a go. My hebrew isn't perfect but I did notice a few mistakes in those other translations. Here you go:
Fantastic birthday
Show there is no spreading secret
To cover the bread
To touch the edges a little absolute
In the middle is alright
I eat maybe in order to sleep
But sandwich stuck
Stuck deep in the night
Right you know
I'm sandwich angry
Before you go
Before you go
Come eat chicken
I like it like that
Fantastic birthday
I eat almost for the status
My order, your order
Blue heaven shakes all around
Right you know
It's chicken
Before you go
Before you go
Come eat chicken
I like it like that
Ahaha.

Hey Jimma,
Your hebrew might not be perfect , but your translation sure made a lot more sense than what I came up with :eclique: LOL.

Yeah no worries, but I was kind of unsure on a couple of bits so maybe some of the other forum members with a bit of Hebrew know how will be able to give it a go. I just get the feeling I may have made some silly errors.

I don't have a local rabbi lol, I think one has to be of the jewish faith to talk to one of those.
I doubt any rabbi would talk to a Pagan lol.
Nuh , I will just ask one of my friends in Israel who is of that faith and is a born Sabra , when I get the chance to email her.

I translated it myself its okay!
I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day
(He's a lumberjack and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day)
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat'ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea
(He cuts down trees...)
(He's a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow'rs
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars
(He cuts down trees...)
(He's a lumberjack...)
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear mama
(He cuts down trees...)
(He's a lumberjack...)

there's a typo in the hebrew:
the first word of the last line of the 2nd last verse should read שמיים not שמים

I went to a Synagogue when I was in Scouts. Its the only thing I remember, besides the fact that Synagogues have a rock-band musical setup as well.

The one on Ocean Street, Woollahra in Sydney.
Though they didnt have anyone on instruments the Saturday morning I went. There was a girl doing a Bat Mitzvah who wasnt a bad sort (I was 16 back then so give me a break).

From memory he was raised in the US and had an American accent. He was friendly with us and seemed to appreciate the fact that he had a unit of Venturer Scouts interested in his religion.
Man that was years ago.

1st Kingsford-Smith. Scout Group still exists, however the Venturer Unit is gone. Kids dont want to do scouts anymore.

Yeah i noticed that. I was at 3rd Rose Bay until i moved to Melbourne and joined 15th Brighton, still a venturer leader now and a rover. I enjoy it, but the numbers have dropped dramatically..still, Jamboree at the end of the year, should be interesting..and fun
