Lyrics The Idan Raichel Project - Ima Aba ve-kol ha-shaar

And when the night is over and the sun is shining
Mommy know what our eyes look like?
Trees all around, high-strung but scorched
Large houses around but the Russians are faded
Walking on the ruins I, mother
And believe me there is no pear here and no flower here
 
We are not heroes because our craft is black
Soak up the sun, come darkness
Then we will sleep in our clothes in bed
Yes Mom, it's important, it's hard and it's awful
 
In my life it's hard but I stay
The earth gray and the black horizon
And blue sky is lingering and he's waiting
And no touches, he doesn't touch the black horizon
Between them, space, nothing and everything else
Which is very difficult, but I remain
There is a barbed wire fence here, followed by a sword drawn
mom, dad, and all the rest
 
We are not heroes because our craft is black
Soak up the sun, come darkness
Then we will sleep in our clothes in bed
Yes Mom, it's important, it's hard and it's awful
 
And when the night is over and the sun is shining
Mommy know what our eyes look like?
