From: yossi - Video in honour of the kidnapped/missing IDF Soldiers
Mima'amakim Kraticha Hashem - Song
Lyrics and Translation (Tehilim 130:1-4) It may be sang in English...
...The wording in English is not the exact literal meaning. It is to make the words and the feel of what is being said come out. Literal meanings: Tivareh: means feared with awe, Kol: voice, Tishmor: keep/guard/preserve. HaShem/TheName: It is forbidden to say the name of G-d. It is replaced with the word Hashem. The word Hashem is also replaced for the other allowable names of G-d that can be said when refering to G-d not in prayers.
Suggestion for those who do not know Hebrew: Follow the video with the words in Hebrew/Hebrew translitaration first and when you get a feel for how the song goes, follow it in English to better understand.
Hashem,
2. Hashem, Shma Ve'Koli,
Tiheyena Ozneycha Kashuvot -- L'Kol Tachanunai
Master, listen to my voice;
Let Your ears tune in -- to the sound of my pleas
אֲדֹנָי, שִׁמְעָה בְקוֹלִי:תִּהְיֶינָה אָזְנֶיךָ, קַשֻּׁבוֹת-- לְקוֹל, תַּחֲנוּנָי
3. Im Avonot Tishmor, Kah, -- Hashem, Mi Ya'amod
If iniquities you record/keep, G-d, -- Master, who will stand
אִם-עֲוֹנוֹת תִּשְׁמָר-קהּ-- אֲדֹנָי, מִי יַעֲמֹד
4. Ki Imchah HaSlichah -- Lema'an, Tivareh
For within You there is forgiveness -- so that, You may be revered
כִּי-עִמְּךָ הַסְּלִיחָה-- לְמַעַן, תִּוָּרֵא
