You Said That the Sun

Copied!
amarta shehashemesh tamid hi zorachat
You said the sun always shines
vehalayla shelanu hu tzel sheover
And our night is just a passing shadow
afilu shekan hachoshech mizeman yarad
Even though the darkness has long descended here
aval hayom rak matchil etzel mishehu acher.
But the day is just beginning somewhere else.
amarta shetamid yesh makom letikva
You said there's always room for hope
maspik ner echad sh... sheod lo kava
One candle that... that hasn't gone out yet
vehu sheyair et hachoshech kulo
And it will light up all the darkness
ani heemanti az eych ze sheat kevar lo?
I believed then, so how is it you no longer do?
eych at roa rak shamayim shechorim?
How do you see only black skies?
hen vaday bamarom yesh milyon kochavim
Surely up above there are a million stars
veyarecha echad libecha od zocher
And one moon your heart still remembers
hashemesh zorachat aval tamid bemakom acher.
The sun shines but always somewhere else.
achshav at shoteket, nisiti bitzchok
Now you're silent, I tried with laughter
mehaetz hanadiv at nafalta dey rachok
From the giving tree you fell quite far
kol hazeman yeshena, kevar lo mesaperet kelum
Always sleeping, no longer telling me anything
veeyn af mila shetigrom lecha lakum.
And not a single word will make you get up.
lachazor
To return
eych at roa rak shamayim shechorim...
How do you see only black skies...
vaani lach kol kach hikshavti
And I listened to you so closely
veshatakti kol hazeman
And stayed silent all the time
bishvili hashemesh zorachat
For me the sun shines
rak matay sheat kan.
Only when you are here.
