Lech chaver tagid lah mah ani margish
ach al tagid al tesaper le'ish
shebaleilot et sh'mah ani tzo'ek
veyesh yamim legamrei mitparek.
Tomar lah kol mah she'atah rotzeh
shekol hachaim rak lah techakeh
aval mah efshar lomar lecha chaver
ech uchal lehakel al ke'evcha.
Tomar lah she'ani otah ohev
ushehi lo yotzet li mehalev
ach al tomar lah she'ani bocheh
yashen im t'munatah umechakeh.
Omar lah she'atah otah ohev
ushehi lo yotzet mehalev
ach lo omar chaver she'atah bocheh
yashen im t'munatah umechakeh.
Tomar lah shetishteh gam lechayay
te'achel lah rak tov gam bil'adai
shelezecher hayamim hatovim
rak shetish'al lish'lomi lif'amim.
Gam im omar zeh lo ya'azor
ani mavti'ach chaver zeh ya'avor
od shavu'a od yom od shanah
lake'ev hazeh hazman hu hat'rufah.
Tomar lah she'ani otah ohev...
