“Oh my native land, I wish it was different here, in your way you say it is very difficult for me”, Miri concludes in a new song that comes out today, her collaboration with Elia Roselio which was written and composed for the production of Nir Maimon.

The song, which is called “Oh my homeland”, contains words that are deeply embedded in the Israeli being and is charged with a new and chilling meaning against the background of the last few months. This is a love song for the country, soaked in the sadness and pain it has had since October 7.
“A painful love song, but full of hope for our bloody country,” says Mesika, who tomorrow will perform at Amphitheater Shoni in a sunset show in which she will try to provide comfort and grace to her audience, adding: “There are more beautiful than her, but there is none as beautiful as her. There are no more beautiful and good than the people who fill her, conscience To the south, which I had the privilege of meeting during my life and especially during the last six months.
“Despite the pain, I am in love with this country and its people more than ever, and believe with all my heart that we can pick up the pieces and rebuild ourselves, perhaps in a better, more loving, more respectful, more united version.”

Words:
O my native country
I wish it was different here
On your way you say
It’s very difficult for me
The soil is red
You collect the best boys
Some of them have now only finished school
Some just went to dance
And your smile will return
And with him ours too
How are you always despite everything?
how are you always
And you are crazy beautiful to me
I love you little one
The longing for innocence
Tears fall on the wall
Everything will be built from here
And we will fight for you with our hands
Angels in green
Dragging the sun into the sky
Between the honeyed milk and the fire
I looked at you
Like a song by Erik and Shalom
You are so beautiful
And sometimes it’s not easy
But that’s how it is to love you
I was born in you and I will die in you
From every angle I am yours
O my native country
I wish it was different here
On your way you say
It’s very difficult for me
