לב של אבן [Lev Shel Even] [English translation]

The dimness of feeling

Dust in the eyes

Once we were one

Now it is two

It began when I forgot my name

And your haze hides the sky

Peace today

Already there will not be and seemingly also not tomorrow

If myself I do not know how to comfort

To give a place for a broken heart

I do not want a heart of stone1

Teach me yearning

To get excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

I do not want a heart of stone

Teach me yearning

To excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

What I would give

For one ache

Truly

That the sky should fall

That a storm should break through

That true tears will tear my heart

And from the depths of the heart will emerge a pure prayer

A pure prayer

I do not want a heart of stone

Teach me yearning

To get excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

I do not want a heart of stone

Teach me yearning

To get excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

Millions of stars in the sky

Yet one star is mine

Him I desire

One sign glows in me

One sign glows in me

Yearning

To get excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

I do not want a heart of stone

Teach me yearning

To get excited like a child

Make it that everything then touches me

Touch.
