THE RIVERS' WATER (A SONG ABOUT RIVERS)

Mey ahnechalim mekaimim et hazrima Shana achar shana shana achar shana Hem yetzanenu et raglenu hadolkot Raglenu ahdolkot velo et hanshama Kmo al nechalim zro'otenu mishtalvot Vegesher mehavot latom velatikva Hake'ev haze hake'ev hamitlave Gam hake'ev haze shayach la'ahava Anashim yotz'im vechoshvim lehitraot Vezo hakavana vezo hakavana Pa'am nekayem ki bapetek shebalev Bapetek shebalev haktovet reshuma Kmo hanechalim....
