אייכה [Aiyeka] [English translation]
אייכה [Aiyeka] [English translation]
Oh God almighty, openly speaking
Sometimes I have no desire to be in Your world
Where can I hide from Thee?
What will I claim, how will I justify myself, what shall I say?
Merciful and gracious all bare before Thee
Is a Jew, hanging by a hair-thin thread
Fighting the sadness, the despair that gnaws like a worm
The happiness had fled from me and so did my sanity
Voices from the past whisper me to stop
But I keep on rowing in the dark
Asking and wishing, where art Thou?!
That same old fool keep sending darts my way
I go and fail, he just grows stronger
Sacred soul, don't you cry, broken-winged
For you'll testify how much I've yearned
When secrets from the past ordered me to stop
But I kept on rowing in the dark
Asking and wishing, where art Thou?!
At the end of the day, I will be expelled unto the sand
The merciful land shall collect me to it
And then I'll shout and justify myself and tell
How in this darkness I would row
Asking and wishing and yearning! Where art Thou?!
