·        גרגר אחד יכול

השיר "גרגר אחד יכול" נכתב ע"י עומר שליט ז"ל שנפל באסון המסוקים והולחן ע"י גלי עטרי במסגרת פרוייקט גל"צ – "עוד מעט נהפוך לשיר" (ראו הקדמה בהמשך).

ניתן להשמיע את השיר ברקע, ותוך כדי, באופן סימולטני, להקריא את המילים: פעם ראשונה את התרגום האנגלי ובפעם השנייה את המילים בעברית.

בקטע המעבר שהוא רק מנגינה ניתן להקרין תמונות של נופלים או של קרבות בהתאם.

 

הקדמה – עברית

סמל ראשון עומר שליט ז"ל מירושלים, לוחם ביחידת עורב של חטיבת הנח"ל, נפל באסון המסוקים בדרכו ללבנון ב-4 בפברואר 1997, והוא בן 19. במהלך חייו כתב עומר סיפורים, תסריטים ושירים רבים, מתוכם בחרה גלי עטרי להלחין ולבצע את השיר "גרגר אחד יכול".

(מתוך פרוייקט גלי צה"ל ליום הזיכרון לחללי צה"ל - :עוד מעט נהפוך לשיר")   

 

הקדמה – אנגלית I

The words to the following song were written by Omer Shalit, זכרונו לברכה.

As a young boy, Omer liked to do magic tricks and read books. He dreamed of being a film director. He also wrote poetry.

 

Omer joined the Israeli army and became a sergeant. On February 4th, 1997, a terrible accident occurred. Two military helicopters crashed into each other and 73 soldiers were killed.  Omer was one of them.

 

The Israeli singer Gali Atari set the words of Omer’s poem " גרגר אחד יכול"  to music.

We dedicate this performance to his memory.

 

גם גרגר אחד

מילים: עומר שליט ז"ל     לחן: גלי עטרי

 

 

על שפת ימה

מעברו של הכחול

גם גרגר אחד בודד יכול

 

כשהקצף לבן

וזהוב הוא החול

גם גרגר אחד בודד יכול

 

 

 

גם הוא הקטן שבקטנים

גם הוא הבודד שברבים

 

 

גם הוא למרות הכול יכול

גם הוא למרות הכול יכול

גם הוא למרות הכול יכול

Gam Garger Echad
One Lonely Grain of Sand

On the lake shore
On the other side of blue
One lonely grain of sand

can make the difference
When the foam is white
And the beach is golden
One lonely grain of sand

 can make the difference

Even the smallest of the small
Even a person all alone in a crowd

Despite it all he can do it
Despite it all she can do it
Despite it all we can do it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


הקדמה – אנגלית II

Omer Shalit set his sights on being the world's best film director. He
used to joke around with his friends that one day Steven Spielberg would
work for him. While in high school, he wrote a script for a short movie
that he made with his friends. He also wrote songs, poetry, was a
talented photographer, and wrote for his high school newspaper.  His
friends described him as smart, serious, and sensitive. He was a family
man and a person who lived his life according to his beliefs. Although
he stood strong in his beliefs, he was very respectful of the beliefs of
others. His beliefs pushed him to become a leader in the Zionist youth
movement "Hatzofim", and then his beliefs pushed him to join the Israeli
army. He spent the vast majority of his nineteen and a half year life
living in Israel, although he lived in Philadelphia for two years, and
in Washington for one year. On February 4, 1997 he died in a helicopter
crash as two military helicopters crashed killing close to 70 Israelis,
the worst air disaster in Israel's military history.

Each person can accomplish so much, only if they realize that they can
make a difference. Omer Shalit in his short life, personified this
message, and he expressed these feelings in a song that he wrote called
"Gam Garger Echad".
