SHIR AVIV
SPRING SONG


At yoshevet b'nafshi
Manginat hatohar.
Ufa, shir aviv chawfshi
El merchav sh'tuf zohar.
Ufa na el hagina
Sham p'richa heicheila.
Im tifgosh b'shoshana
Ten et birkati la.



You live in my soul, melody of purity.
Fly, free spring song, to the expanse
flooded with light.
Fly, please, to the garden
There the flowering has begun.
If you should meet a rose
Give her my blessing.


Translator's note:
Variations:
(first line) At zoremet b'nafshi - Slowly you flow through my soul.
Instead of "Sham..." - Ba p'richa hitchila - In it,
the flowering has begun.
