זוכר כמעט הכל [Zocher Kim'at Hakol] [English translation]

I remember almost everything,

Me and Jonathan in the rain,

Scrapes on our knees,

Skipping in the water,

But clear skies.

I remember almost everything,

Smells of mom’s cooking,

And baking cakes,

Before the wars,

When we were called kids.

I remember almost everything,

And you clearly saying,

My beast, hug me,

Tell me what’s on your heart.

I remember almost everything,

Every part of the road

And a few failures

A few victories

A few shards of life

I remember almost everything,

Long nights waiting for the sun,

Freezing on some mountain,

Until tomorrow comes,

How we grew, young.

I remember almost everything,

Grandpa standing at the synagogue,

Whispering Kol Nidre1 and blessing,

They used to believe in words.

I remember me, you,

In love somewhere,

On the balcony.

Bread, cream and blankets,

What else do we need, my love?

I remember almost everything,

Every corner, every crack,

And a few failures

A few victories

A few shards of life

I remember almost everything,

Jerusalem, all the guys,

Drunk on the streets,

No worries on our minds,

No past and no future.

I remember almost everything,

Crossing India by a train,

Squeezing in Beit Chabad2,

Smiling from side to side.

In the east you can be innocent.

I remember me kissing your back,

Before you fall asleep

Asking for G-d,

Please, look after her,

There are bad men too.

I remember almost everything,

Every word, every part,

And a few failures

A few victories

A few shards of life.

A few shards of life

I remember almost everything,

Me and Jonathan in the rain,

Scrapes on our knees,

Skipping in the water,

But clear skies
