SHEDEMATI
MY FIELD

 

Shedemati,
Im shahar z'ratiha b'dim'ah,
Tfilat ha'yogev nishma'ah.
Shedemati,
Ravtah t'lalim
shahra me'or chamah,
Lifnei kotser shahah kamah.
B'tsa'ad rav
chermesh kallal yunaf el al
My field,
At dawn I sowed it in tears,
Let the prayer of the farmer be heard!
My field,
It is saturated with dew,
It is intoxicated by the light of the sun.
The grain bends low in front of the reaper.
The strides are long,
The burnished scythe is raised high.
