Текст песни Al Zeh - Mordechai Ben David

Al Zeh

Al zeh dove libeinu
For this aches our heart
Al ela hosh hu eineinu?
For this darkened our eyes
Al har tzioin sheShomeim
For mount Zion that is desolate
Shuolim ieilhu boi
Foxes walk there

Ato HaShem leOilom teishev
You oh Lord forever reign
Kisahoh leDoir voDoir
Your throne from generation to generation
Lomo lomo lomo loNetzah tishkoheinu
Why why why forgot us forever
Taazveinu leOireh iomim?
Left us for long time

על־זה היה דוה לבנו על־אלה חשׁכו עינינו׃
על הר־ציון שׁשׁמם שׁועלים הלכו־בו׃
אתה יהוה לעולם תשׁב כסאך לדר ודור׃
למה לנצח תשׁכחנו תעזבנו לארך ימים׃

"For this our heart is faint; for these things our eyes are dim. Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, the foxes walk upon it. Thou, O LORD, remainest forever; thy throne from generation to generation. Wherefore dost thou forget us forever, and forsake us so long time?"
(Lam 5: 17-20)
