HAMA'AVAK

Rotzah legalot she'ibadnu t'aderech,
rotzah lada'at lamah ve'eich,
lehavin shenisinu hakol lo be'erech,
matai hasiyut ha'ayom yimashech.
Rotzah legalot shehakol kvar nigmar,
rotzah lichyot ha'avar avar,
ulai he'atid tzavu'a varod,
saradnu lamadnu lo rotzim et zeh od.

Achi, hama'avak nim'shach veshuv od delet nis'geret
ani cholem al hashalom im ha'oyev bakavenet

aval pote'ach ta'iton veshuv kore al od retzach
ach lo avdah haderech, lo avdah hatikvah
basof yihyeh beseder im lechol davar yesh sibah

lachen ha'am chatzui ve'od shniyah mil'chemet achim
rotzim lichyot beshalom aval kodem lichyot
lo lamut beshalom veliv'not matzevot
et hazman hameyutar nashki'ah bele'ehov

lo naf'sik ki yesh sibah she'ad lekan hig'anu
bo nif'tach et ha'einaim venenaseh la'azor

Rotzah legalot she'ibadnu t'aderech...

Ein shalom bechol mechir, hakol bil'ti sadir

Rotzah legalot shehakol kvar nigmar,

Mechugim ratzim achorah, pit'om kol shniyah nish'eret

Rotzah legalot she'ibadnu t'aderech...

THE STRUGGLE

I want to reveal that we lost the way,
I want to know why and how,
to understand that we tried it all, not just about
when the horror, the terror will continue.
I want to discover that all is already finished,
I want to live the past as the past,
maybe the future is painted pink,
we survived, we learned, don't want this anymore.

Bro, the struggle continues and again another door is closed
I dream of peace with the enemy in the weapon's sight
and the end, each end is maybe a sign for democracy in the area
but I open the paper and again read about another murder
but the way is not lost, the hope has not perished
at the end it'll be fine if everything has a reason
the ways God choses are hidden
therefore the nation is split and in a second it's civil war
wanting to live in peace but to live first
not die in peace and build tombstones
we'll invest the redundant time in loving
strangers follow and smile in the street
so whether it's good or bad, God is with us
we won't stop 'cuz there's a reason we got up to here
let's open our eyes and try to help
let's not fear the fear and stop - pass!

I want to reveal that we lost the way...

There's no peace at any price, everything is irregular
a fragile situation, the stress that rules in the air
in a routine in locking up, in the mood
there's no sure thing and there's no arguing about that
who's right I don't know, who only knows that it hurts everyone
makes despair and weariness how the evil with the long arm touches us
the nation's full of pain, he dreams of her
we're still waiting for the hope, it was (here) and left
I'm surrounded by friends who are full of disappointment
they're looking for the break-through
passing from aspiration to delusion to a cause to jump
and they have no exit
there's no solution to everything
one has to change before everything falls
meanwhile we want to change yesterday
we're crying today without thinking about the great tomorrow

I want to discover that all is already finished,
I want to live the past as the past,
maybe the future is painted pink,
we survived, we learned, don't want this anymore.

The clock hands run backwards, suddenly each second remains
war happened, stopped - "migidi" - about truth
politicians approximately, a thousand live in a nightmare
with white collar criminals, no wonder
soldiers dying, let's take a second of silence
another second for peace, another second for hope
each minute, a family falls, another funeral
another year that ends in a question mark
the struggle!
In front of us a door is closed
I live from day to day and have no other country
understand, I return to Zion and the pain in me burns
because the cigarette is swinging only in another's mouth
and I live, open my eyes to a new day
enough, I'm breaking the cycle, I had enough
God guard over my brothers
if I forget thee Jerusalem may my right hand be forgotten!

I want to reveal that we lost the way...
