Az nafalti shadud,
big'roni yevavah
hem amru shegam hi chazrah bit'shuvah:
"tzadikim melamdim lah dinei yere'im -
lo tashuv od lif'kod et s'dotai hachot'im.

Atufah kol kulah, mibli sedek pa'ut
tz'chor shadeiha kistah bemal'vosh shel tzni'ut.
Karsulah he'adin bapuzmak ha'aroch
al chelkat yerechah, mitchatel hu beroch.

Se'arah ha'aroch, hagolesh veyored
ne'esaf vehushpal uch'lahu hu ka'et

veharabi omer shetzarich lekatzetz.

Mabatah or acher, lo od gitz uv'rakim.
Ne'elmah leshonah sheyad'ah tafnukim

Mitchashek li livkot bishvili, bishvilah.

Me'ushar hasifron she'ochezet yadah

Ve'hi shuv lo tavo, mitganevet bal'at
bein s'dinai harakim, le'oneg shabat
va'ani ha'umlal, mah osif ledaberr
lu haytah li t'shuvah, az hayiti chozer.
