AT ADAMAH


 

At adama, belev midbar
Le lo tsel etz, lelo matar.

El merchavech nadrima
Amarnu ki nasima paneinu hanegba.

B'admatech makor chayim
Tehi ze'ateinu lematar revivim.

El merchavech nadrima
Amarnu ki nasima paneinu hanegba.

Be'afikei hanegev
Nashkeh, nirveh kol regev.

El merchavech nadrima
Amarnu ki nasima paneinu hanegba.

YOU ARE LAND


You, O land, in the heart of the desert,
With no shadows of trees, with no rain,

We will go south to your expanses;
We said we will set our faces toward the Negev.

In your land is the source of life;
Our sweat will be a light rain.

We will go south to your expanses;
We said we will set our faces toward the Negev.

Through the river channels of the Negev,
We will let every clump of earth drink its fill.

We will go south to your expanses;
We said we will set our faces toward the Negev.
