MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT IN THE TOWN 

In the middle of the night in the village,
I light another cigarette before a checkpoint.
I'm guarding, and a cleric sings from Ramallah

Between people in black
I pass another fence that is difficult to cross
I am found between Elchader and Beit Jalla

It's the middle of the night
and perhaps it is already late.
you're not calling
then maybe [bad word] tomorrow.
look at the clouds
Now they've painted themselves gray
because of our situation

In the middle of the night in the village,
the moon illuminates to me time that passed.
In the passageway, a soldier is praying
(L'Cha Dodi Likrat Calah)

The smell of the fires,
And again it's hard to see.
The screen of fog [bad word] us

It's the middle of the night...

The minute before the dawning
the morning lights and the night has passed
I return and it still sings from up there.
