DOV‘s second music video – a cover of the iconic Israeli song made famous by Zohar Argov. In this epic story, find out if DOV will be able to get his one true love back, or will he be left “Badad” (alone).

Badad was recorded as a live track from a performance by DOV during the 2012 Hallelujah Global Singing Competition. This one of a kind contest brought 30 young Jewish singers from 14 different countries to Israel, to be a part of a reality television show (like American Idol).

Lyrics:
Badad bamish’ol el ha’ayin —————– Alone, on the path to nothing ,
Badad banativ lelo chlum ——————- Alone, on the trail without anything
Badad im hazman haboreach ————- Alone, with time running out
Vehazman lo shocheach ——————- And time doesn’t forget
Lehatziv et hagvul ————————— to set limits

Badad bli kaf yad melatefet ————— Alone, without a caressing hand
Badad lelo shechem yadid —————- Alone, without a friendly shoulder to lean on
Badad kama tov lo lada’at —————– Alone, how good it is to never know
Sheyadech kvar noga’at ——————- That your hand is touching
beyado shel acher ————————— someone else’s hand

Chorus:
Badad elech – gam tfila ein li ————– I walk alone, without a prayer
Badad bli atid bli tikva ———————– Alone, without a future, without a hope
bli chalom ————————————– without a dream

Badad kmo hashemesh endoda ———- Alone, like the sun, I will wander
Badad bamidbar halohet ——————– Alone, in the scorching desert
Badad gam dmaot hen rak hevel ——— Alone, and tears are nothing but vanity
Shir mizmor ein lasevel ——————— There is no song that describes the suffering
Shir mizmor shel ilmim ———————– It is the song of the mute
