שיר ערש [Sheer Eresh] [English translation]

Sleep. Go to sleep, little boy

Mommy is here, she'll protect you

There, go to sleep, little soldier

Mommy's here, she'll protect you

even when the dreams will come

nightmares of wars

she'll worry about turning on the light

She'll stop trying to count the time

that passed between (there and here) then and now

And how you grew into a young man

Your two eyes, she'll give (turn into)

a hero

There, go to sleep, little soldier

Mommy's here, she'll protect you.

Then the dreams will come true

and the wars will end

and she'll be able to see the light

She'll be able to stop counting the time

that passed from when you returned

She hasn't seen you in forever

Your two eyes, she'll give (turn into)

a hero

She'll be able to stop counting the time

from when the world stopped

she hasn't seen you in forever

Your two eyes, she'll give (turn into)

a hero

There, go to sleep, little soldier

Mommy's here, she'll protect you...
