Rotsah lomar lecha harbeh dvarim,

Ha'el natan ve-rak ha el yikach
Atah li chaver ve-ach

Refrain
Shalom chaver, I find it hard to talk

It gets harder every day

I want to say a lot of things to you

I have no words, due to the magnitude of the pain
(x2)

 

Like a known, planted tree that stands tall

A strange wind plucked its roots

The tree grew over the years

Climbed and climbed until it touched the sky

Gave fruits and shadow to the tired

It is nature's way

Like the tree a man grows up as well

Wants his estate as well

God gave and only God will take

You are my friend and brother

 
Refrain
Shalom chaver, I find it hard to talk

It gets harder every day

I want to say a lot of things to you

I have no words, due to the magnitude of the pain
(x2)











Refrain
Shalom chaver, I find it hard to talk

It gets harder every day

I want to say a lot of things to you

I have no words, due to the magnitude of the pain
