Elo Hi - Ofra Haza, Goran Bregović (The Entire Soul)

Elo Hi (Canto Nero) - Ofra Haza. From the soundtrack of the film «La Reine Margot» by Patrice Chéreau, based on Alexandre Dumas' novel
Music: Goran Bregović
Lyrics: Bezalel Aloni

Kol Haneshama - The entire soul
Translation of lyrics:
My God, with all soul you have instilled in me
there exists much secrecy and deceit after we are born in this life
and love cannot survive.
My God, for all those many days of the unceasing pain
we are asking for Your Mercy.
My God, with all soul you have instilled in me
please give strength to all people
My God please give strength for ever.

Ken, yesh harbei hester panim
v'ahavot she'i efshar
kmo she'anu noladim
el toch hachayim.
Elohai, elohai
cawl han'shama she'natata bi
Elohai ten rak ko'ach l'chulam
Elohai, ten rak ko'ach l'olam.
Canto Nero...

Ken, al yamim, yamim rabim
al hak'ev sheloh chadal
kmo she'anu noladim
u-m'vakshim k'tzat rachamim
Elohai, kol han'shama she-natata bi
Elohai, kol han'shama
mah, mah hi?
Elohai, ten rak ko'ach l'chulam
Elohai, ten rak ko'ach l'olam.

If angels had a voice they would sound like Ofra. I listen to her when ever i feel down or lonely. She is remedy for the soul. Words cannot describe her talent . Greetings from Greece to the wonderful people of Israel.

I'm proud of she cause we are from in same country Yemen 🇾🇪🇾🇪
You don't need religion to have morals. If you can't determine right from wrong, then you lack empathy, not religion

What a divine combination! Goran Bregovich, Ofra Haza.. and Vincent Perez in Patrice Chéreausˇ Queen Margot. Thank you!

[anabellecorrigan-musicteac]

What a GEM!! Her voice is so gorgeous, she's needs no instruments or other voices to accompany her. She is absolutely enough in her own to bring joy to my ears. ❤

C'est grâce a ce film cette chanson que j'ai découvert cette chanteuse d'une voix sublime OFRA HAZA. Merci

[guauguau]

The music of Goran Bregović and the warmfull voice of unforgettable Ofra Haza are the MOST!!! Thanks!

[ДарьяГобозова-пп]

Тот случай, когда совпало все! Супер. Горан Брегович - гений. О. Хаза, жаль рано ушла, не дожила, не допела. Печально

[barnaanamaria]

Goran Bregovic and the voice of Ofra Haza are really special

[БСП-ул]

Ofra Haza & Goran Bregovic - enough said.
Here's an interesting fact: not one song in this (gorgeous) movie is an original, they're all Bregovic's remakes of the music from his own previously recorded works. Elo Hi was, for instance, remake of his song (in Serbian) "Kad odem kad me ne bude" (in English, roughly) "When I'm gone".
Another, extremely interesting fact: La Reine Margot was the movie about one of the pivotal moments in French history, filmed in the years of French cultural puritanism introduced by the the Minister of Culture Jacques Lang (he went as far as kicking the anglicisms from the Larousse dictionary) - yet, not one single word in the entire soundtrack is in French!! Hebrew, Greek, Serbian, even some imaginary/invented language in the song "Ruda Neruda"...
I like to think only GB can do such a thing - that man can do ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING...

[ЯнаМисник-щш]

Горанбреговичавтор, Офра, голос твой, на века запомнят, с огромным почтением
