bechal haderachim shebacharti nishara li zechut habechira
In all the paths I've chosen I kept the right to choose
hivtachti leatzmi keshehakol yachalof eese li min regia
I promised myself that when it all passes I'll find myself some calm
bechal haderachim shebacharti bacharti bizchut hashetika
In all the paths I've chosen I chose the right to silence
lifamim hamilim meleot bechocha lifamim shavot ahava
Sometimes words are full of power, sometimes they're worth love
bechal haderachim shebacharti ani rotze otach iti
In all the paths I've chosen I want you with me
rotza tzeadim al hachol hacham lidey
Wanting footsteps on the warm sand beside me
bechal haderachim shebacharti shachachti et atzmi
In all the paths I've chosen I lost myself
ulay beeyze tzomet o sheze rak ani
Maybe at some crossroads, or maybe that's just me
yom sheover vachalom mimachar balayla magia vaani nishbar
A day goes by and a dream for tomorrow, at night it arrives and I break down
mithapech bamita vecholem al lishon
Tossing in bed and dreaming of sleep
veotzem et haayin magdil ketzat lishon tenu lishon
Closing my eyes, stretching out sleep a little, let me sleep
bechal haderachim shehalachti chipasti mangina
In all the paths I've walked I searched for a melody
ulay hatzelilim yitenu li kocha ulay yitenu ketzat tikva
Maybe the sounds will give me strength, maybe give a little hope
bechal haderachim shehalachti shachachti et atzmi
In all the paths I've walked I lost myself
ulay beeyze tzomet o sheze rak ani
Maybe at some crossroads, or maybe that's just me
od yom sheover vachalom mimachar od layla magia vaani nishbar
Another day goes by and a dream for tomorrow, another night arrives and I break down
mithapech bamita vecholem al lishon
Tossing in bed and dreaming of sleep
veotzem et haayin magdil ketzat lishon
Closing my eyes, stretching out sleep a little
hine havtacha tikva mul shamayim behirim
Here is a promise, hope beneath bright skies
derech lo tihye kala lefachot bacharti bah beatzmi
A path won't be easy but at least I chose it myself
