LYRIC
WHEN- Miami Boys Choir- Composed By Yerachmiel Begun,
Lyrics By Shoshana Begun- It’s Min Hashomayim
See our world… it’s torn apart,
boldness has replaced the heart…
Each and every day we feel the strain.
Lives are filled with emptiness,
Living dreams so meaningless…
Where’s the goal we hoped we could attain?
CHORUS:
We ask, when? When?
When will the Galus end?
Tell us, when? Oh, when?
When will Your throne descend?
How will the good succeed?
Can we all be reprieved?
How we long to see Your glory once again.
We ask, when? When?
When will these days appear?
Maybe then, only then
the truth will become so clear,
the world will be always bright
with darkness replaced by light.
How we hope to change our story, tell me, when?
Where are those peaceful days?
In a place Kedusha reigns
May the deeds of Avos be our plea
Standing for what we believe
Endless years we’ve had to grieve
May our Zechus join those from history…
CHORUS:
We ask, when? When?
When will the Galus end?
Tell us, when? Oh, when?
When will Your throne descend?
How will the good succeed?
Can we all be reprieved?
How we long to see Your glory once again.
We ask, when? When?
When will these days appear?
Maybe then, only then
the truth will become so clear,
the world will be always bright
with darkness replaced by light.
How we hope to change our story, tell me, when?
Tell me when?…
