LIR'OT ET HAKE'EV


 

Bashalechet etz omed levado baru'ach
Ein lo rega cham ve'ein lo tzel
Lif'amim gam hu rotzeh lehargish batu'ach
Velo kmo perach shenovel

Velif'amim hazman bochen otanu
Mani'ach leraglenu michsholim
Ach lanu yesh et hakochot shelanu
Nar'e lo she'anachnu yecholim

Lir'ot et hake'ev ulehabit lo ba'enayim
Lehitzamed el hachayim chazak lo levater
Leha'amin bechol halev sheyihyeh od tov
Veshelamrot hakol anachnu nitgaber
(x2)

Elokim ro'e hakol mashgi'ach milemala
Shelo ne'abed et hatikva
Vegam im lif'amim ko'ev tzarich lalechet hal'a
Ein davar hakol rak letova

Velif'amim...

TO SEE THE PAIN


A tree stands alone in autumn
No shade or a warm moment
Some times it wants to feel safe as well
Not like a flower that dies

And sometimes time tests us
It lays obstacles in from of us
But we have our strength
We will show it that we can

To see the pain and look it in the eye
To strongly embrace life and not give up
To believe with all our heart that it will get better
And despite of it all we will overcome
(x2)

God sees everything and watches from above
That we will not lose hope
And even if it hurts sometimes, we need to move on.
It doesn't matter, it is all for the best.

And sometimes...
