משה [Moshe] [English translation]

Life spread out on the desk

that does not interest us

you wanted to bring us news

but the wall stood between us

everything freezes, stands in shadow

You might try harder

this heart hears all

this heart insists insists

wants to escape but for the water

like a wall and there is no answer

Quickly

you will be our eyes

that will finally open the heart

everything freezes, stands in shadow

return quickly

remember that we stood between walls of water

we saw it all occur

now everything stands in shadow

return quickly

as in the past

you would roam the vast desert

In the end we escaped because of you

but you were the last to see the land1

that became the floor of our lives

you saw the land from far away

now everything has changed customs, the longing has finally passed

what burned in our hearts remains in you

but with us all freezes, stands in shadow

Quickly

you will be our eyes

that will finally open the heart

everything freezes, stands in shadow

return quickly

remember that we stood between walls of water

we saw it all occur

now everything stands in shadow

return quickly

as in the past

you would roam the vast desert
