את חירותי [At Cheruti] [English translation]

You are my freedom

I preserved you in me

like a star in the storm

You are my freedom

you helped me to stand

every sorrow every pain

To walk in the paths of my destiny

until I will be like a tree in the fall

And to dream under the moon beams

and to keep on walking

You are my freedom

For your own sake

I broke my promise to you

You are my freedom

And to keep my pact with you

I (even) sold my (last) shirt

I have suffered much, and had pain without end

Only for you to give me your trust

I left my country and the best of my friends

and I am only yours

You are my freedom

you told me to give up on

all things delightful and pleasant

You are my freedom

you taught my heart

to be happy when I was lonely

You taught me to smile

in front of an opportunity that passed by

To lick my wounds in hiding and to get up

and keep on going

You are my freedom -

on one cold night

I broke my promise to you

And alone

I deserted the path

we both had walked together

I have betrayed you my good freedom

and walked to prison with sadness

To the warm jail that is called love

I was taken like a boy

And a beautiful warden with a lavish gesture

locked the gate
