lyrics

Broken Hearts (Shvurei Lev)

Who knows pain and all its parts?
Who restores all broken hearts?
Forms darkness and light?
Creator of peace and strife?

Who sits on the judgment throne?
Clothed in mercy that alone
Who sees all and knows,
Yet forgives and lets go?

Just who will heal my broken heart when I fall apart?
One that I long for like an ocean with no shore?
Will you tell my soul who will make me whole,
And promise my heart won’t break anymore?

Mi haya hove ve'yihye (Who was, is, and will be)?
mi memit u'mehaye (Who takes and gives renewed life)?
Poteah yadayim, matsmiah k’nafayim (Opens arms, grows wings).

U'mi yerapeh libi (And who will heal my heart)?
El mi ani mit'ga'agea (For whom I am longing),
K’mo yam she'ein lo chof (Like a sea with no shore)?
Rak tagid li mi (Just tell me who)
mi yechabek oti ve'yavtiach (who will embrace me and promise)
she'ani lo ekana basof (That I won’t give up in the end)?
She'ani lo ekana basof (That I won’t give up in the end?)

And who will heal my broken heart when I fall apart?
One that I long for like an ocean with no shore?
Will you tell my soul who will make me whole,
And promise my heart won’t break anymore?
My heart won’t break anymore.
