Alive
Listen, brothers I'm still alive And my two eyes are still raised to the light Many are my thorns, But also my flowers And ahead of me are years too numerous to count I ask And pray It's good that hope was not yet lost A psalm passes from generation to generation Like a spring from long ago, and on to eternity I ask And pray It's good that hope was not yet lost Alive, alive, alive Yes, I'm still alive This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it] I'm still alive, alive, alive The people of Israel live This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it]! My days are full of life And also my nights And in my sky the pillar of fire still rises I will sing endlessly I'll spread out my hands To my friends across the sea. I ask And pray It's good that hope was not yet lost Alive, alive, alive Yes, I'm still alive This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it] I'm still alive, alive, alive The people of Israel live This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it]! Listen my brothers, I'm still alive And my two eyes are still raised to the light So here's to life! To all my guests And to my children who seek to return I ask And pray It's good that hope was not yet lost Alive, alive, alive Yes, I'm still alive This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it] I'm still alive, alive, alive The people of Israel live This is the song which grandfather Sang yesterday to father And today I [sing it]! Alive alive alive Alive alive alive Alive, I'm still alive alive alive! |
