חולם כמו יוסף [Cholem Kmo Yosef] [English translation]

Every person is expelled from the Garden of Eden

Everyone undergoes a flood

Every person has some Abel

About whom he is deathly jealous

In everyone there is a tower of rebellion and confusion

Every person goes to him1 from his father's house

Everyone nearly binds his son2

Deep inside there is a small Sodom

That he just wants to erase already

And there are angels that will rescue him

And I also dream like Joseph

Yes they also threw me into the pit

A wheel that repeats inside a costume3

And like David I make it into a psalm4

Make it into a psalm

Everyone is a queen like Esther

Defeated like Deborah; only that any army would come

Like everyone she also cries in private

Like Rachel like Moses on Mount Nevo

And I also dream like Joseph

Yes they also threw me into the pit

A wheel that repeats inside a costume

And like David I make it into a psalm

Make it into a psalm

Every person is created in the Image (of the Divine)

An ember burning secrets and clues

Everyone is good content for a movie

A new role inside an age-old story
