摘要：

 TO DREAM IN HEBREW     I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew    A tongue so strange its "hello" means "goodbye!"    Yet my middle-of-the-nighttime conversations    Resound with bakashah, todah, and dai.    I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew    A tongue so turned around it says "night-good!"    Yet yofi squirts from out of my unconscious    As E1 A1 touches safely down at Lod.    I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew    A gendered tongue where breasts are masculine!

To dream in Hebrew.

TO DREAM IN HEBREW

   I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew
   A tongue so strange its "hello" means "goodbye!"
   Yet my middle-of-the-nighttime conversations
   Resound with bakashah, todah, and dai.
   I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew
   A tongue so turned around it says "night-good!"
   Yet yofi squirts from out of my unconscious
   As E1 A1 touches safely down at Lod.
   I never dreamed I'd learn to dream in Hebrew
   A gendered tongue where breasts are masculine!
