אייכה [Aiyeka] [English translation]

Oh God almighty, openly speaking

Sometimes I have no desire to be in Your world

Where can I hide from Thee?

What will I claim, how will I justify myself, what shall I say?

Merciful and gracious all bare before Thee

Is a Jew, hanging by a hair-thin thread

Fighting the sadness, the despair that gnaws like a worm

The happiness had fled from me and so did my sanity

Voices from the past whisper me to stop

But I keep on rowing in the dark

Asking and wishing, where art Thou?!

That same old fool keep sending darts my way

I go and fail, he just grows stronger

Sacred soul, don't you cry, broken-winged

For you'll testify how much I've yearned

When secrets from the past ordered me to stop

But I kept on rowing in the dark

Asking and wishing, where art Thou?!

At the end of the day, I will be expelled unto the sand

The merciful land shall collect me to it

And then I'll shout and justify myself and tell

How in this darkness I would row

Asking and wishing and yearning! Where art Thou?!
