Shloime Daskal still your child

Select language to translate this lyric

When I was a child
you looked at me with pride
you held my hand so tight
and smiled
I felt so safe and warm
in the fortress of my home
I knew that I was loved and not alone
now those years have gone
bitter times have come
those sweet memories
fade away
I feel so cold and lost
so far away from home
a wanderer who lives
from day to day
please tell me why you sent me away
how could you let go of my hand
I know we could have found a better way
but now that I'm gone
tell me what have we done?
please tell me why you sent me away
how could you let go of my hand
I know we could have found a better way
but now that I'm gone
tell me what have we done?
I know the end is near
there is nothing to be done
the doctors shake there head
and turn away
I mourn the days I'll miss
the life I'll never have
and the happiness I lost that fateful day
I look up and I see
you standing at the door
with sadness and regret
upon your face
I knew this day would come
together once again
who knew that it would be the last embrace
please forgive me for all I've put you thru
and know I forgive you too
just to see you here means the world to me
now that you've come I feel that at last I'm home
I'm grateful hashem
that you sent me this day
a final moment of peace כי אבי ואמי עזבונו והשם יאספנו
please forgive me for all I've put you thru
and know I forgive you too
just to see you here means the world to me
now that you've come
I feel that at last I'm home
