elef machashavot olot bi mul kol hamarot
A thousand thoughts rise in me before every image
leraglay niftach od shaar
At my feet another gate opens
eyney haayefot
My weary eyes
bifney zorecha osher begabi demaot
In my face happiness shines, behind my back tears
shetashuv na al halayla
That will return tonight
tzorvot umlatefot
Burning and caressing
od meat ani evrach
In a little while I'll run away
shelo tuchlu lirot
So you won't be able to see
et kol hashevarim asafti
All the fragments I gathered
bidey hamichsot
In hands that cover
et kol hapanim sherak bikashti lenakot
All the faces I only wanted to clean
mikol hashekarim ilchush kama milim tovot
From all the lies I'll whisper a few good words
menase lichyot,aval beli demuyot
Trying to live, but without the figures
shemaalot bi et hasheelot
That raise questions within me
al mi ani bichlal, haim yesh li mazal
About who I even am, do I have any luck
shenisharti laanot
That I remained to answer
sheketzat kashe ani pashut holech
That it's a little hard, I simply walk away
shelo yiru oti ani shuv mitrachek
So they won't see me, I distance myself again
matzeey hortuvim milayla shel selichot
The damp sheets from a night of forgiveness
al kol mi shelo ratziti kamohu lihyot
For everyone I didn't want to be like
al atzmi sheyikacheni bechilaki lihyot
For myself, who will carry me in my portion to be
kemo chalom
Like a dream
sheyiseni el hanistarot
That will carry me to the hidden things
ani menase lichyot aval beli demuyot
I'm trying to live but without the figures
shemaalot bi et hasheelot,
That raise questions within me
al mi ani bichlal haim yesh li mazal
About who I even am, do I have any luck
shenisharti laanot
That I remained to answer
sheketzat kashe ani pashut holech
That it's a little hard, I simply walk away
shelo yiru oti ani shuv mitrachek
So they won't see me, I distance myself again
yesh yamim,ani yodea lechapes,lhitgagea
There are days when I know how to search, to yearn
velashuv el ma shelo nigmar
And return to what hasn't ended
nichbe aval nishar,
It dims but remains,
ani yodea sheyashuv machar
I know tomorrow will come back
menase lichyot aval beli demuyot
Trying to live but without the figures
shemaalot bi et hasheelot
That raise questions within me
al mi ani bichlal,haim yesh li mazal
About who I even am, do I have any luck
shenisharti laanot
That I remained to answer
sheketzat kashe ani pashut holech
That it's a little hard, I simply walk away
shelo yiru oti ani shuv mitrachek
So they won't see me, I distance myself again
elef machashavot olot bi
A thousand thoughts rise in me
