English version:

Yesterday,

I got lost

in the south.

My mind

was clouded,

so I couldn’t

think straight.

Moving forward,

I’ll keep

walking north,

and stay there.

Hebrew version:

אתמול,

הלכתי לאיבוד

בדרום.

המוח שלי

היה מוצל

אז לא יכולתי

לחשוב ישר.

נע קדימה,

חולבת צפונה,

ולה ישאר שם.

Hebrew version (romanized):

Etmol,

chalachti le’ibud

be’darom.

Hamoach sheli

haya mutzal,

az lo yacholti

lahashov yashar.

Na kadima,

ani tamshich

cholechet tzfonah

ve’lach yashar shuv.
