EIN ZMAN LIT'OT
NO TIME TO WANDER
   


Kol kach maher bi ratz hazman.
An' lo zocheret t'kufat hagan,
Kol kach maher bi ratz hazman
An'lo zocheret kvar shum davar.
Rotza matok yotzei li mar,
Rotza limtzo et he'avar.

Rotza limtzo bi shorashim
Bein avotai kehei panim,
Makom bo rak hachalomot
Shamru oti alpayim shnot.
Makom hayiti bo yalda
Shel sipurim v'agada.

Ein zman lit'ot, bo.
Ein zman lichyot, bo.

Im yesh atzvut az rak hatzchok
Kmo yaldut oseh rak tov,
Ani rotza et harachok
Karov eilai, karov karov.
Yom yom hu ba kmo achshav,
Yom yom holech lo v'lo shav.

Ein zman lit'ot, bo.
Ein zman lichyot, bo.


Time runs by so fast within me,
I don't remember the time I was in kindergarten
Time runs by so fast within me,
I don't remember anything any more.
I want sweet, it comes out sour.
I want to find the past.

I want to find my roots
Among my dark-faced ancestors
A place in which only dreams
Preserved me for two thousand years.
A place in which I was a girl
Of stories and legend.

There's no time to wander, come...
No time to live, come...

If there's sadness then only laughter,
Like childhood, does only good,
I want what's distant to be close to me,
very close.
Every day comes like now,
Every day goes on its way and doesn't return.

There's no time to wander, come....
No time to live, come....
