באמצע החיים [Be'emtsa Hachaim] [English translation]

In the middle of life, I had some passing thoughts

to where everyone rushing, and are there any

happy people,

We are chasing after nothing, and it is difficult

for us to get up,

time flies, and here we are in the middle of life

In the middle of life, I had some hesitations,

Did I waste the time, where do we go from here,

I want to get excited, and to hug my kids, and to say thanks

That we are all humans

Maybe we did good, maybe we got it wrong

with our choices,

we have learned to feel pain, and we insisted to love,

one way or another, I love you,

one way or another, I love you

In the middle of life, I am not feeling left behind anymore,

I had my share of pain, and my hair is greyer

I am ready for forgiveness, and reaching

a compermise, is not considered a curse anymor,

I guess that is how it is in the middle of life

Maybe we did good, maybe we got it wrong

with our choices,

we have learned to feel pain, and we insisted to love,

one way or another, I love you,

one way or another, I love you

Maybe when you will look at me,

maybe this time you will see an old guy,

who is tired from games

time had taught me that love is not just a taste/a flavour

it is work, love is a distance running

Maybe we did good, maybe we got it wrong

with our choices,

we have learned to feel pain, and we insisted to love,

one way or another, I love you,

one way or another, I love you
