OMRIM YESHNA ERETZ
THEY SAY THERE IS A LAND

 

Omrim: Yeshna eretz,
eretz shchoret shemesh
eiah otah eretz?
eifo otah shemesh?

Omrim: Yeshna eretz,
amudeiha shiv'ah
shiv'ah kochvei lechet,
tsatsim al kol giv'ah.

Eifo otah eretz,
kochvei otah giv'ah?
Mi yen'chnu derech,
yagid li han'tivah?

Kvar avarnu kamah
midbarot vayamim
kvar halachnu kamah
kochoteinu tamim.

Ki'tsad zeh ta'inu?
tere hunach lanu?
Otah erets shemesh,
otah lo matzanu.

Eretz bah yitkayem
asher kol ish kivah,
nichnas kol hanichnas,
p'ga bo akiva.

Shalom lecha akiva!
shalom lecha harabi!
eifo hem hakedoshim,
eifo hamakabi?

Oneh lo akivah,
omer lo harabi:
kol yisrael kedoshim,
atah hamakabi!

Eifo otah eretz,
kochvei otah giv'ah?
Mi yen'chnu derech,
yagid li han'tivah?

Omrim: yeshna eretz,
eretz revat shemesh...
eiah otah eretz?
eifo otah shemesh?
