Ka'asher te'atzemnah einai
ve'eshkach et edri veyonai,
od ezkor, od ezkor, yedidai,
haro'ah hak'tanah min hagai.

Kochavim yid'achu me'alai
vehachoshech yichas et chayay,
ach ani od er'eh lefanai
haro'ah hak'tanah min hagai.

Ba'ilan ye'almu tziporim
veharu'ach yidom beharim.
Yacharish chalili vezimro,
ach eshma et tzilah be'evro.

Vehayah ki efkach et einai,
vehineh haro'ah min hagai.
Ke'gadia shechamchamah bein gadai
hi po'ah vesho'elet: matai?

Hi sho'elet: matai, bachuri,
tevarech et imi bech'fari,
vetochal mepriha beganah,
vetish'teh im avi miyeinah.

Va'ashiv laro'ah hak'tanah:
lo esva mepriha beganah,
lo eshkar miyeinah begatah,
rak bikashti lishko'ach beitah.
