It’s always a joy when Rivka Basman Ben-Haim puts out a new book. Her newest book, entitled “Eybike Vegn”, Eternal Paths, contains sixty-four new poems. Like every other book that Basman Ben-Haim has written, this book contains the art work of Mula Ben-Haim, the poet’s late husband.

One of the poems in this new book appeared earlier on this blog in its English translation.  At that time, the Yiddish original was only available in hand-written form. Now that the poem has been printed, I will attach a printed copy to the post containing the English translation.  Other translations will appear here from time to time, always accompanied by the original Yiddish.
