Mi ohev et hashabat?
Ima ve'aba!
Mi ohev et hashabat?
Savta vesaba!
Mi ohev et hashabat?
Ani, atah ve'at.
Kol ha'olam ki'mat!
az lamah lo kol yom shabat?

Yom rishon sheni shlishi
kol yom nimshach shanah
revi'i et chamishi noten bematanah.
Hayamim ovrim le'at
rishon ad chamishi
umachar machar shabat
ki ba kvar yom shishi

Mi ohev et hashabat...

Beshabat hatziporim sharot merov simchah
beshabat ein shi'urim
zeh yom shel menuchah.
Beshabat kol etz modeh
lashemesh al orah
verokedet basadeh
gam Ednah haparah.

Mi ohev et hashabat...

Beshabat avi yashen im ha'iton shelo
ve'ima omeret ken harbeh yoter male,
yom shabat hu yom nechmad
yoter mikol acher -
az lamah davka yom shabat
over kol kach maher?!
