אמן על הילדים - Amen Al Hayeladim 
English Version 

Yonasan Gavant
Cover for Chanan Ben Ari

Composed by: Chanan Ben Ari 
English Lyrics by: Y. Gavant and AJ Esral
Mixed & Mastered by: J. Torres

 
Crazy how time flies, I hear the cries and all the laughter
Just yesterday, I was a kid in my happily ever after 
Now they call me Dad, a name a badge to wear proud
I could shout out loud, my feelings of thanks to Hashem

I blink and they’re seven the next day eleven, and oh how my heart can explode
They’re precious and bliss, a hug and a kiss, but sometimes I carry a load
On my mind all week, all day, and into the night
Their super mom shines so bright, I’m still dealing with fright that

אני לא אספיק להגיע
לשמור, להציל, להושיע
לספוג במקומם ת'קליע
אוי כמה הלב הוא פגיע

אני מתפלל על הילדים שלי
שלא יירשו את השריטות שלי
Serve Hashem with health and joyfully, 
Blossom into who you’re meant to be

אני מתפלל על הילדים שלי
שלא יירשו את השריטות שלי
There for eachother, build new families, 
Hashem, please help them find their destiny

I just want to be there to stay and to be where they need me as much as I can,
To help them and hold them, love them and mold them, give them all that I am
I struggle sometimes to keep up the stride, but I know it’s worth it
The feelings inside, the feelings of pride, I know they deserve it

I want to be the one they see, the one they tell their fears and dreams,
The fairytales will come true, yes they tell me
Princess dresses, birds, and trees, the world through little eyes they see,
The magic in those moments, truly touch me

מתפלל על הילדים שלי
שלא יירשו את השריטות שלי
Serve Hashem with health and joyfully,
Blossom into who you’re meant to be

אמן אמן אמן על הילדים שלי
שלא יירשו את השריטות שלי
There for eachother, build new families,
Hashem, please help them find their destiny

I stand and absorb from the sidelines
Cheering them on in the limelight
No matter when, morning or midnight
Just want to know that they’ll be alright

 שלא יירשו את השריטות שלי
There for eachother, build new families, 
Hashem, please help them find their destiny

Lyrics (Shir HaShirim 2:2-3, and 6:3)
כְּשֽׁוֹשַׁנָּה֙ בֵּ֣ין הַחוֹחִ֔ים כֵּ֥ן רַעְיָתִ֖י בֵּ֥ין הַבָּנֽוֹת׃
כְּתַפּ֙וּחַ֙ בַּעֲצֵ֣י הַיַּ֔עַר כֵּ֥ן דּוֹדִ֖י בֵּ֣ין הַבָּנִ֑ים
אֲנִ֤י לְדוֹדִי֙ וְדוֹדִ֣י לִ֔י הָרֹעֶ֖ה בַּשּׁוֹשַׁנִּֽים׃
בְּצִלּוֹ֙ חִמַּ֣דְתִּי וְיָשַׁ֔בְתִּי וּפִרְי֖וֹ מָת֥וֹק לְחִכִּֽי׃
------------------------------------
Like a rose among the thorns,
So is my beloved among the maidens
Like an apple tree among trees of the forest,
So is my beloved among the youths.

I am my beloved’s
And my beloved is mine;
He browses among the roses.
I delight to sit in his shade,
And his fruit is sweet to my mouth.

Lyrics:

There are times when I stand by a mirror
To take a close look at myself
And the face that I see – Looking right back at me
Wishes it was someone else

But there is – only one you
A fragment of light from above
That would joyfully serve and cling to Hashem 
If only it knew – the depth of His love 

Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly 
Show yourself and the world just how very high
You can fly, you can soar – once you unlock the door
And Hashem will be there at your side – And Hashem will be there at your side

There are times when I hear music playing 
But it’s more a lament than a song
I’m so used to the pain – of its tragic refrain
That whispers you don’t belong

But there is – only one you
A Neshama most precious and sweet
Our lives are a chorus – In praise of Hashem
And when your voice is missing – The song’s incomplete 

Chorus

I’ve been told every soul sent from heaven
Has its very own mountain to climb
Though some do prevail – Others stumble and fail
And I know not which fate will be mine 
 
But there is – only one you
With a calling of your very own
The road may be long – a test of the heart
But you’ll never, no never - have to walk it alone 

Time to leave your cocoon, my dear butterfly 
Show yourself and the world just how very high
You can fly, you can soar – once you unlock the door
And Hashem will be there at your side – He’ll always be there at your side
