AD MATAI ELOHAI


 

Sagur levad im atzmi
ve'lo yotze et beiti
etmol haytah olami
azvah ve'hi lo iti.

Nafshi bocha vesho'elet
ve'ein li mi she'oneh
etmol patachti delet
hayom hakol pit'om shoneh.

Nafshi to'ah vezo'eket
ve'ein li ish leyadi
velamah hi mitchameket
ve'ech ani kan levadi.

Ach ad matai elohai ehyeh levadi
Ach ad matai elohai ehyeh levadi

Uveleilot arukim
chadri male bish'tikah
bein m'tza'im shez'rukim
yoshev leyad hamitah
uveyamim behirim
ha'or lo ba beveiti
hachadarim hem s'gurim
mehayom she'hi azvah oti.

Od ya'avru hayamim
veshuv ashir et shirai
k'mei nahar el yam zormim
kmo tzel telech hi acharai.

Ach ad matai elohai ehyeh levadi
Ach ad matai elohai ehyeh levadi

UNTIL WHEN, MY GOD


Closed alone with myself
and I don't leave my house
yesterday she was my world
she left and isn't with me.

My soul cries and asks
and I have nobody to answer
yesterday I opened the door
today everything's suddenly different.

My soul wanders and screams
and there's nobody by my side
and why does she evade (me)
oh and how alone I am here.

Ah, until when my God, will I be alone
oh, until when my God, will I be alone.

And during long nights
my room is full of silence
between bedding that's thrown
I sit next to the bed
and on bright days
the light doesn't come to my house
the rooms are closed
from the day she left me.

Oh the days will yet pass
and I'll sing my songs again
like the waters flowing to the sea
like a shaddow she will follow me.

Ah, until when my God, will I be alone
oh, until when my God, will I be alone.
