Keshehalev Boche

When the Heart Cries

by Sarit Hadad

Copied!
keshehalev boche rak elohim shomea
When the heart weeps only God hears
hakeev ole mitoch haneshama
The pain rises from within the soul
adam nofel lifney shehu shokea
A man falls before he sinks
bitfila ketana chotech et hademama.
With a small prayer he cuts through the silence.
shema yisrael elohi ata hakol yachol
Hear, O Israel, my God, You are all-powerful
natata li et chayay natata li hakol
You gave me my life, you gave me everything
beeyney dima halev boche besheket
In my eyes a tear, the heart weeps quietly
uchshehalev shotek haneshama zoeket.
And when the heart is silent the soul cries out.
shema yisrael elohey achshav ani levad
Hear, O Israel, my God, now I am alone
chazak oti elohey ase shelo efchad
Strengthen me, my God, make it so I'm not afraid
hakeev gadol veeyn lean livrocha
The pain is great and there's nowhere to flee
asa sheyigamer ki lo notar bi kocha.
Make it end for no strength remains in me.
keshehalev boche hazeman omed milechet
When the heart weeps time stands still
haadam roe et kol chayayv pitom
The person sees his whole life suddenly
el halo noda hu lo rotze lalechet
Into the unknown he doesn't want to go
leelohayv kore al saf tehom.
To his God he calls from the edge of the abyss.
shema yisrael elohay...
Hear, O Israel, my God...
