Hamesh Tzulvot Shnei Rimonim – חמש צולבות שני רימונים Lyrics Meaning

[בית א]
In this first part of the song, the singer reflects on the idea that the changes he anticipates will eventually happen, though he’s unsure when. He speaks about looking back at his past, trying to be ready for what comes. The reference to “five crosses and two pomegranates” symbolizes old habits that are difficult to escape, even though they may seem clear yet heavy to carry. He remembers a past conversation where someone once told him he was stronger than them, and now, he reveals that he didn’t always succeed, merely surviving through those moments. He hides the weight of his past, including the recurring habits and patterns that echo in his mind. Recently, he’s been trying to let go, but the old habits are still weighing him down.

In the second verse, the singer speaks privately to someone, whispering about unresolved arguments and misunderstandings from the past. He describes a child within him still fighting to break free from years of ingrained habits. These “old habits” are personified almost like soldiers in a battle, ones that he has come to accept and even support, following their rules, yet still recognizing that something about it feels different to him. He feels the pressure of letting someone down, perhaps the person he’s speaking to, as he struggles with the guilt of his past actions. He admits that every time he got angry, he blamed himself. Even though he’s fighting against these old habits, he wonders if there are ever real winners in this battle. He realizes these habits will affect others one day, too, as time moves on. His emotional battle with the past continues.

In the final part, the singer imagines a future where, despite all the changes, he’ll still be searching for a place that feels like home, but finds it difficult because that place sometimes feels distant—just like the person he’s singing to. He realizes that what he finds along the way will be temporary comforts, yet they’re just part of his past habits. If the person ever leaves him, he understands that time will pass, but he assures them that he’s theirs, forever committed. He promises that, just like the old habits, he’ll be there with them through all of it.
