BELEILOT HAKAYITZ HACHAMIM

Beleilot hakaitz hachamim
Shum davar eino koreh
Ulai kochav nagoz miba'ad
Lechalon patu'ach

Ulai tzartzar nishma harchek
Ach afilu hasha'on lo metak'tek
Beleilot hakaitz hachamim
Shum davar eino koreh.

Mitachat le'etz hatut bak'far
Yosh'vim umedabrim,
Kor'im besefer ba'al reiach yashan
Otz'mim einaim veshot'kim

Shum davar acher eino koreh
Beleilot hakayitz hachamim,
Mitachat le'etz hatut bak'far
Yosh'vim umedabrim.

ON THE HOT SUMMER NIGHTS

On the hot summer nights
Nothing happens
Maybe a star vanished through
An open window

Maybe a cricket's chirp'll be heard afar
But even the clock doesn't tick
On the hot summer nights
Nothing happens
(x2)

Under the fruit tree in the village
Sitting and talking,
Reading a book with an old smell
Closing (our) eyes and being quiet

Nothing else happens
On the hot summer nights
Under the fruit tree in the village
Sitting and talking.
(x2)

בלילות הקיץ החמים
