ANI CHAYA LI MIYOM
LEYOM
I'M LIVING FROM DAY
TO DAY
   

Ani chayali meyom leyom -
mifazeret et yamai laru'ach
Anashim mitchatnim svivi -
gam ani rotzah ktzat lanu'ach

Omrim sheha'adama shelanu
mistovevet sviv tzira
Eifo hatzir sheli?
Lehistovev zeh dvar nora

Lo kol kacha yaffa
Velo bat shesh esrei
Aval yoda'at mashehu
Al ha'olam hazeh

Ve'im hu retzini
Veim hu rak rotzeh
Tmurat mila achat
Eten kol kach harbeh

Po vesham hofiah gever
kmo betachanat rakevet nidachat
Mi sheratza bi be'erev-
chozer bo im olot hashachar
Omrim shehashemesh shelanu
bo'eret kvar milion shana
Kama yechol livor adam-
uvesach hakol beshvilma?

Lo kol kacha yaffa
Velo bat shesh esrei
Aval yoda'at mashehu
Al ha'olam hazeh

Ve'im hu retzini
Veim hu rak rotzeh
Tmurat mila achat
Eten kol kach harbeh

Ve'im yosheet li yad
Veim yegid rotzeh
Tmurat me'at me'od
Eten kol kach harbeh

I live from day to day
Scatter my days to the wind
People around me are getting married
I too want to rest just a little bit

They say that our earth

Goes in circles round an axis

Where is my axis?
Going in circles is a terrible thing

I'm not very pretty
I'm not 16 years old
But I know something
About this world

And if he's serious
If he just wants to
In exchange for one word
I'll give so very much

Here and there appears a man
As in some remote train station
He wants me in the evening
Changes his tune with the sunrise

They say that our Sun

Has been burning for millions of years

How much can a person burn
And for what purpose?

I'm not very pretty

I'm not 16 years old

But I know something
About this world

And if he's serious
If he just wants to
In exchange for one word
I'll give so very much

And if he'll reach out a hand to me

And if he'll say I want to
In exchange for very little
I'll give so very much
