My Son
My son, a hero, everywhere i'm with you
go, don't stop, i'll always have your back1
it's ok to be afraid, you are surrounded by friends
that G-d will watch over all of you
My beautiful son, your are with me in my prayers
when another day ends i light candles
when you are fighting so i'm also here not able to fall asleep
don't worry, this isn't the end of the world
It's true that i promised that there would not be any more wars
i always was the one who was on guard at night
just don't take too much onto yourself
and if you should be in pain then it should come to me
This is a longing that is hard to explain
and for your embrace which is priceless
i'm standing here waiting in the window
if only you would return today
My son, a champion, among the dust and the smoke
remember to call when you have a bit of time
know that in life everything passes
we're here to stay
- 1. lit: i'll be your back
