Hayiti az boneh li bayit me'even,

Uve'achat - rak olim,

hashlishit lo tovil leshum makom,
rak sheyed'u shezeh beito shel g'vir!

Az hechatzer tihyeh mele'ah efrochim

Vezugati, hi Goldeh, sham al hamir'peset
im santer kaful mat'im,
k'mo ishto shel rav kalman haparnes.
Vehi tipasa lah sham kigveret mefurcheset,
vetitz'rach al hameshar'tim,
mitnapachat - oi! - k'mo tavas.

Yavo'u kol chachmei ha'ir lish'ol ba'atzati
gam harav oti yish'al az
mah hadin vehamin'hag:
im to'il, rav Tuvyah,
mah hadin, rav Tuvyah,
bebeitzah shelo noldah be'erev chag?

Ule'olam shum ish lo ya'ir li

Ki hag'vir tzodek tamid - vedai!

Ve'az uchal sof sof bebeit hamidrash

lashevet sof sof al yad kotel hamizrach.
Ulehit'palel, ulehitpal'pel k'tzat al Rashi
im kol talmidei hachachamim.
Vezeh yihyeh chalom nifla kol kach...

Ho, eli, hachai vehakayam.

Meh hayah nigra kvar ba'olam
