פתאום כשלא באת [Pitom Kshe'Lo Bat] [English translation]

Now after two or three days

since you left and took with you all that i was

i discovered pictures on the white wall

and a few gray clouds on the kitchen ceiling

On the same day that you left

the clock rang and woke up the whole house

and winter sunlight entered via the shutters

and i saw faces in my coffee, similar and not

Suddenly when you didn't come

i wanted so much

suddenly when you didn't come

i became cold

and i turned on the light in the next room

and i waited hours for you without air or body

After the ceiling slid into the floor

and the skies were filled with birds

and i traveled far like a wild dove

and i was dreaming and was awake

Very slowly the light went out on its own

and i was left in darkness and was alone

the pictures slid off the wall

very sad, because suddenly when you didn't come

Suddenly when you didn't come....
