Clouds so dark and grey,
A ship is tossed and swayed,
Booming thunder pounding as a storm does overtake!
It continues in the haze,
Drowning in the waves,
Which way to go? The captain concentrates!
A compass he does hold,
To lead him through the cold,
Unsure of where to travel on,
the arrow’s pointing north!
But he won’t deviate,
The risk is much too great,
To breach the path will lead them all astray!
Chorus:
Though mighty winds do blow,
They try to lure the ship offcourse,
A sea full of confusion,
Where to go oh where to turn?
The other ways may beckon,
To escape the storm, come here,
Bni al telech b’derech itam!
Just keep following the compass,
To a road so smooth and clear!
The darkest clouds will part,
To show a sun shining up there!
Cuz when you’re guided by an arrow,
Pointing to the truth,
The beautiful, calm waters await you!
In times of dark and grey,
Our ship is tossed and swayed,
We’re the captains of our lives and on the path we concentrate!
The waves are rolling high,
It’s so hard to decide,
It’s so tempting to give in to other ways!
A compass we do hold,
That will lead us through the cold,
While other paths are glittering and promising of gold!
But do not deviate,
The risk is much too great,
To breach the path will lead us all astray!
Chorus:
Though mighty winds do blow,
They try to lure the ship off course,
A sea full of confusion,
Where to go oh where to turn?
The other ways may beckon,
To escape the storm, come here,
Bni al telech b’derech itam!
Just keep following the compass,
To a road so smooth and clear!
The darkest clouds will part,
To show a sun shining up there!
Cuz when you’re guided by an arrow,
Pointing to the truth,
The beautiful, calm waters await you!
