Lu nitan li al chayay lach'zor

Lu nolad'ti shuv mechadash
me'ahavotai hayiti shuv nir'gash
lo hayiti mevater

mimas'a bederech rechokah
ani chay, chay, chay
vehashemesh me'alai
od tiz'rach al derech arukah.
Lu nitan li al chayay lach'zor
lesovev et hagal'gal achor,
shuv laga'at, shuv lir'ot,
lo lada'at, shuv lit'ot -
tamid otah haderech e'evor.
Kol chayay...
