אחותי [Achoti] [English translation]

You remember, sister

What you whispered to me then

What you promised to me then

How you wiped off my tear

How you saw my soul

When the sun was gone

To a different, different place

You remember, sister

What was lost in me then

Something was born in me

The weight at my feet

The shivers in my hands

And the freedom in my eyes

That's always returning, burning, racing with me

Both of us are fighting to maintain life

To reconcile with the storms, to speak to God

And to open up our eyes - there are beautiful things to see

With skies, without skies

And we are still here

You know, sister

It doesn't hurt me anymore

It doesn't eat me up anymore

The silk string is curling

And entangling with an iron wire

Only the light outside is falling

And always forgives, rejoices, redeems me

Both of us are fighting to maintain life

To reconcile with the storms, to speak to God

And to open up our eyes - there are beautiful things to see

With skies, without skies

And we are still here

Both of us are fighting to maintain life

To reconcile with the storms, to speak to God

And to open up our eyes - there are beautiful things to see

With skies, without skies

And we are still here

We are still here

We are still here

You know, sister
