Текст песни Sarit Hadad - LAMAH HALACHT MIMENU

Lamah halacht mimenu
ech azavt otanu
anu sho'alim kol pa'am mechadash
mah lo asinu
heshkenu vekivinu
stam pit'om azavt.

Hayiti chalashah
hayiti atzuvah
hatiti galmudah
lo yacholti lehitpate'ach
hayiti bochiyah
hayiti aluvah
hayah li potentzial
vedai.

Lamah azavt t'agever
hu hayah beseder
hu hayah oseh lach bayit v'yeladim
hasha'on shelanu
dofek bebiologit
veharosh shelach oved be'ayonit.

Lamah halacht mimenu...

Ratziti chofshiut
ratziti hitkadmut
ratziti lehatzli'ach
gam la'avod gam leharvi'ach
ratziti Tel Aviv
ule'ametz tachbiv
ratziti matarah
vedai.

Lamah halacht mimenu...

Rotzah harpatka'ot
g'varim im koukiot
be-high-society(im)
ani rotzeh lashir shirim
chipasti et atzmi
me'ever lere'i
ve'lo raiti k'lum.

Ha'ayerah doma'at
rak mitga'aga'at
kol hayeladim ozvim ve'lo chozrim
mah mah lo asinu
heshkenu vekivinu
uvasof halacht.

Why did you go away from us
oh how you left us
we are asking ourselves each time anew
what did we not do
we watered (you) and we hoped
suddenly you just left.

I was weak
I was sad
I was lonely
I couldn't develop
I was a weeper
I was poor
I had potential
and that's it.

Why did you leave the guy
he was alright
he would have got you a house and kids
our clock
knocks in biological (time)
and your head works in the theoretical.

Why did you go away from us...

I wanted freedom
I wanted advancement
I wanted to succeed
to work and to earn too
I wanted Tel Aviv
and to take up a hobby
I wanted a goal
and that's it.

Why did you go away from us...

I want adventures
guys with ponytails
in high societies
I want to sing songs
I searched for myself
in the mirror
and I didn't see anything.

The village is weeping
only yearning (for you)
all the children leave and don't come back
what, wha did we not do
we watered (you) and we hoped
and at the end you went away.
