ERETZ NEHEDERET


 

Yesh po eretz nehederet
Vekedai ba lichyot
Im yod'im lir'ot hakol
be'einaim acherot
Yesh po eretz nehederet

Im yod'im litzchok achrei
Shebol'im et hadim'a
Im lomdim lehitchamem
mechuma shel havtacha
Yesh po eretz nehederet.

Pizmon
Az bo nikach neshima
Venishbor et hakir
Ha'yamim behirim vehalaila tza'ir
Ein mima lefached
Umutar gam lashir
Hamachar mitkarev......
vehadofek mahir.

Yesh po eretz nehederet
velamrot hachadashot
Vehakol ba yistader
ktzat yoter ktzat pachot
Yesh po eretz nehederet

I'm nir'eh et hazricha
rechokim memiklatim
Im nafsik lehitzamed
bechol sha'a lamakletim
Yesh po eretz nehederet.

Pizmon
Az bo nikach neshima
Venishbor et hakir
Ha'yamim behirim vehalaila tza'ir
Ein mima lefached
Umutar gam lashir
Hamachar mitkarev......

Yesh po eretz nehederet
lehatchil mehatchala
Va'anachnu od baderech
vehaderech lo kala
Yesh po eretz nehederet

Im no'hav lehit'ahev
im nizkor et hatikvot
Im nilmad lehitragesh
venatchil sof sof lichyot
Az yesh po eretz nehederet.

Az bo nikach neshima
Venishbor et hakir
Ha'yamim behirim vehalaila tza'ir
Ein mima lefached

WONDERFUL LAND


There is a wonderful land here
and it is worthwhile to live in it.
if we know how to view things
from a different perspective*
there is a wonderful land here.

If we know how to laugh after
holding back the tears
If we learn to feel the warmth
of a promise
there is a wonderful land here.

Refrain:
So come, let’s take a breath,
and break through the wall
the days are clear and the night is young
There is nothing to be afraid of,
and it’s OK also to sing
Tomorrow approaches.....
and the pulse quickens.

There is a wonderful land here
and in spite of the news
everything here will turn out OK
a little more or a little less
there is a wonderful land here.

If we watch the sunrise
far from the shelters
if we quit being stuck
to the radio receiver all the time,
there is a wonderful land here.

Refrain...
So come, let’s take a breath,
and break through the wall
the days are clear and the night is young
There is nothing to be afraid of,
and it’s OK also to sing
Tomorrow approaches.....
and the pulse quickens.

There is a wonderful land here
to begin from the beginning
still we are on the way,
and the way is not easy
there is a wonderful land here.

If we loved falling in love,
if we remembered the hopes
if we learn to be excited
and we finally began to live then...
there is a wonderful land here.

Refrain:
So come, let’s take a breath,
and break through the wall
the days are clear and the night is young
There is nothing to be afraid of,
and it’s OK also to sing
Tomorrow approaches.....
and the pulse quickens.
