Kshe'ani choshev alaich
nachal zorem me'einai
zo'ek chazak et sh'mech
vechiyuchech oleh el mul panai
lo mevin mah zeh azavt

yesh tiskul veza'am
sh'mamah betoch beiti im chesronech.

Matai tavini she'ani kvar lo ani
rotzeh shetachzeri le'atzmech
matai ted'i kamah ani otach ohev
katavti et hashir bishvilech
shuvi she'uchal od lechayech.

Heichan otan shanim
hayit lanu k'yahalom
ach mi zocher hayom
et ha'osher shel etmol shilshom
hitpai'si na vehavi
lach zer prachim eten
yesh tiskul veza'am
ach ahavati gavrah al shneihem.
