ima yekara chabeki oti
Dear mother, hold me close
nafshi petzua yesh li hargasha raa
My soul is wounded, I feel so bad
kaavti beavar velo haya li kal
I suffered in the past and it wasn't easy
biglal haregesh harosh ketzat mevulbal
Because of feeling too much, the mind gets a little confused
haemet kaava vehasheker od yoter
The truth hurt and the lie hurt even more
rotze katef chama leshabat ledaber
I want a warm shoulder to sit and talk
imi kemo malach shomeret
My mother, like an angel, watches over
imi at velo acheret
My mother, you and no other
kuli petzua chozeret veat ozeret
All wounded I return and you help
imi at velo acheret
My mother, you and no other
bachita yamim chikita leylot
You cried days and waited nights
libecha nishbar hakol setam meyutar
Your heart broke, it all seemed pointless
hevanti shetzadakta hakol haya lashov
I understood you were right, everything was in vain
mi ze yomar li ma yihye achshav
Who will tell me now what will happen
haemet kaava vehasheker od yoter
The truth hurt and the lie hurt even more
rotze katef chama leshabat ledaber
I want a warm shoulder to sit and talk
imi kemo malach shomeret...
My mother, like an angel, watches over...
