Idan Raichel - Lama Ze Magi’a Lanu ft. Berry Sakharof (Why Do We Deserve It - English Translation)
[Verse 1]
And together in a boat we looked up to the sky
And when drops fell we thought it was a blessing
Now it is a storm, why do we deserve it ‎‏
And how come we didn't see it coming
And in a wide field we spread our hands
And an autumn wind came and blew across our necks
Now everything is frozen, why do we deserve it
And how come we didn't see it coming

[Chorus]
You remember, once we rowed against the tide
And we drifted, intoxicated with love
And after we dreamed and flew to the sky
We woke up, broken on the ground

[Verse 2]
And in that house where the two of us sat
And we silenced words that we could have said
Now it's an empty room
Why do we deserve it‎‏, and how come we didn't see it coming

[Chorus]
You remember, once we rowed against the tide
And we drifted, intoxicated with love
And after we dreamed and flew to the sky
We woke up, broken on the ground
[Outro]
And together in a boat we looked up to the sky
And when drops fell we thought it was a blessing
Now it is a storm, why do we deserve it ‎‏
And how come we didn't see it coming
