Shama'im - Orphaned Land

וכשנדליק את השמיים

מי לאש ומי למים

אל כיוון שאין לו סוף

אל ים גדול שאין בו חוף

והמבול שעוד יגיע

בלי נביא שיודיע

ואין תיבה כאן בעולם

לשמור חיים פה לכולם

האם זאת דרך אלוהים

או סתם תעמולה להמונים

שמתחילה כל פעולה

תמיד בדרך השלילה

בגלל כתות ואדמה

ארץ יתומה

Aquae diluvii inundaverunt super terram

והפסלים בהם בחרנו

האמונה שאיבדנו

ומה היא דרך האמת

כשהמצפון מזמן כבר מת

ואל תגידו לא ידענו

לא ראינו לא שמענו

זה יגמר בלחיצה

כשהעולם יחזור להיות ביצה

האם זאת דרך אלוהים

או אגדות או סיפורים

שמתחילים כל פעולה

תמיד בדרך השלילה

בגלל כתות ואדמה

ארץ יתומה

כי נדלקו כבר השמיים

מי לאש ומי למים

אל כיוון שאין לו סוף

אל ים גדול שאין בו חוף

And when the skylight will ignite

Whom to fire whom to water

To a path forevermore

To a great sea that hath no shore

And the flood will surely come

Out of nothing will arrive

And no ark upon this world

That all life here will now hold

And is it not the path of god

Or just a doctrine for the masses

That starts with every action

Forever a negative reaction

Because of cults and dry sands

Orphaned Land

The idols that we chose

The faith we have lost

What path now is true

When conscience is long through

Do not say you didn’t know

Didn’t see and have not heard

It will end with a push

And the world will be a seed again

Is this the path of god

Or stories told of fables

That starts with every action

Forever a negative reaction

Because of cults and dry lands

Orphaned Land

For the sky’s already lit

Whom to fire whom to water

To a path forever more

To a great sea that hath no shore

And when I turn on the sky

Who is for fire and who is for water

To an endless direction

To a great sea that has no shore

And the flood that is yet to come

without a prophet to announce

And there is no box here in the world

Keep life here for everyone

Is this God's way?

Or just propaganda for the masses

that starts every action

Always in the negative way

Because of sects and land

orphan land

Aquae diluvii inundaverunt super terram

And the statues we chose

The faith we lost

And what is the way of truth

When the conscience has long since died

And don't say we didn't know

We didn't see, we didn't hear

It will end with a click

When the world goes back to being an egg

Is this God's way?

or legends or stories

that start every action

Always in the negative way

Because of sects and land

orphan land

Because the sky has already lit up

Who is for fire and who is for water

To an endless direction

To a great sea that has no shore

And when the skylight will ignite

Whom to fire whom to water

To a path forever more

To a great sea that has no shore

And the flood will surely come

Out of nothing will arrive

And no ark upon this world

That all life here will now hold

And it is not the path of God

Or just a doctrine for the masses

That starts with every action

Forever a negative reaction

Because of cults and dry sands

Orphaned Land

The idols that we chose

The faith we have lost

What path now is true

When conscience is long through

Don't say you didn't know

Didn't see and haven't heard

It will end with a push

And the world will be a seed again

Is this the path of God

Or stories told of fables

That starts with every action

Forever a negative reaction

Because of cults and dry lands

Orphaned Land

For the sky's already lit

Whom to fire whom to water

To a path forever more

To a great sea that has no shore
