Shma Israel - Jonathan Settel

When the heart cries

only God hears

The pain rises out of the soul

A man falls down before he sinks down

With a little prayer (he) cuts the silence

Shma (Hear) Israel my God,

you’re the omnipotent

You gave me my life,

you gave me everything

In my eyes a tear,

the heart cries quietly

And when the heart is quiet,

the soul screams

Shma (Hear) Israel my God,

now I am alone

Make me strong my God;

make it that I won’t be afraid

The pain is big,

and there’s no where to run away

End it because I can’t take it anymore

(make the end of it because I have no more energy left within me)

When the heart cries,

Time stands still

All of a sudden, the man sees his entire life

He doesn’t want to go to the unknown

He cries to his God right before a big fall
