Halleluya (Noam Jacobson version)
They say there's a hidden cordwhich David played before the Lord
but what do you have to do with music and with heaven?
Cords can actually be relatively easy,
the minor descends, the major ascends,
the embarrassed king sings 'Halleluya'
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya.
I am a believer but I need a sign,
her roof can be seen from here,
her beauty and the moon have struck you.
She tied you to a kitchen chair,
and the crown - she threw to the bin,
and from your lips she drew
'Halleluya'
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya.
You say I said His name in vain,
I don't even know how one calls to Him
and even if I do, why do you even care?
in every word there's a ray of light,
for all I care, you can choose
both the holy and the broken are 'Halleluya'
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya.
To the best of my ability, and it isn't much
when I understood nothing I tried touching it
I speak the truth, I didn't come to lie to you
and when I'm descended down into the pit,
I shall stand before the God of psalms 1
Hashem*, you shall open my lips and my mouth shall say 'Halleluya'2
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
Halleluya, Halleluya
