Ani yotze shuv el haderech hamushetet leraglay El yamim veleylot el masa chayay Ani omer shalom lechol echad Eretz nirdemet velev nifrad
Min habayit bo gadalti nishmati od mabita Chalonot nifkachim el emet pshuta Ani holech ita lechol midbar Eretz choreget o derech bar
Aval kemey hanachal hasoer Tamid ani chozer Lean shegaagua tov yikach Lesham ani shayach
Veim mishehu babayit mistakel alay achshav Keadam leadam lo el or kochav Ani omer toda bekol nir’ad Eretz nifredet velev echad
Aval kemey hanachal hasoer Tamid ani chozer Lean shegaagua tov yikach Lesham ani shayach
Chozer el hashvilim el harchovot el hayadayim hamchakot El hazrichot el hashkiot vehashanim hachi yafot El sheyikre el sheavar el ma shelo dome lemar
Kemey hanachal hasoer Tamid ani chozer Lean shegaagua tov yikach Lesham ani shayach Lesham ani shayach
My Life's Journey
I step out again unto the road lying at my feet Unto days and nights, unto my life’s journey I say goodbye to everyone The land falls asleep and the heart parts
From the home I grew up in, my soul still looks on Windows open to a simple truth I walk with it to every desert Foreign land or wild road
But like the waters of a stormy river I always return To where a good longing takes me There I belong
And if someone at home looks at me now Person to person, not to starlight I thank you in a quivering voice Parted land and one heart
But like the waters of a stormy river I always return To where a good longing takes me There I belong
I return to the footpaths, the streets, the awaiting hands To sunrises, sunsets, and to the best years To what will come, to what has passed, to that which is not bitter
Like the waters of a stormy river I always return To where a good longing takes me There I belong There I belong
