מחכה [Mechake] [English translation]

one day it will happen

we won't notice, but something will change

something will become calm in us, something will touch us

and there will be nothing to worry about

and it will come like a line engraved on a hand

it will come with self-confidence

as if it had been there all along

and waited for us to notice it

and it will come, you'll see

the clenched hands will unfold

and the heart watching out not to be hurt will beat with a steady pulse

it will come, just as nature is wont

to be whole with itself

one day it will happen

we won't notice, but something will change

something will become calm in us, something will touch us

and there will be nothing to worry about

and it will come like a line engraved on a hand

it will come with self-confidence

as if it had been there all along

and waited for us to notice it

and it will come, you'll see

the clenched hands will unfold

and the heart watching out not to be hurt will beat with a steady pulse

it will come, just as nature is wont

you'll see,

the clenched hands will unfold

and the heart watching out not to be hurt will beat with a steady pulse

it will come, just as nature is wont

to be whole...

and it will come, when not everything will shake us

and not everything will strike

and what will be opened for us

is waiting.
