Hadag Nahash - Od Ach Ehad

Hadag Nahash (The Fish is Snake) is an Israeli band. From my point of view this is a SONG, that’s right in capital letters. Od Ach Ehad means One More Brother and it’s about violence on the streets, I think everyone should listen to it. Below the video you can see the translated lyrics , although there are some expressions difficult to translate.

English Lyrics:

[Chorus]

One more brother was buried

and mama (mom) is crying, she is shouting her soul out

one more brother was buried

dad's shouts surrounds you

Man, why is your heart as cold as ice

do you enjoy being a murderer

ears that hear threats coming from your mouth

why do you speak like that, I'm your brother

every side claims that the truth is his

and in every day that passes one more innocent dies

killing people you dont care at all

shooting human being, how can you do that

mom is hurting and one more child is an orphan

and the sidewalk is red again

life is important and valuable

murder and killing aren't the way

[Chorus]

One more brother was buried

and mama is crying, she is shouting her soul out

one more brother was buried

dad's shouts surround you

Child what is going on with you how did you go crazy

look bro, where did you get

you dont care everything is premitted

in your eyes a dark cold glace

think about the future and about tomorrow

to try and change is never too late

all Israelis stop with the violence

I don't want to see anyone else dying

we will show mercy we will show mercifulness

instead of getting angry we will show friendliness

every life that is spilled is leaving a trail of emptiness

and its to live and not die for our country

[Chorus]

One more brother was buried

and mama is crying, she is shouting her soul out

one more brother was buried

dad's shouts surround you

Maybe it's time to ask questions

like how long can we keep on living like that

and if the war on the borders is cut

from the violence that stop our life

looks like the tension here will never be over

Big Fishy was the one who said:

that we are all equal at the end

so why will we bring each other back to the dust
