Ken min zeman
katuv shachor al lavan
chatzinu yam arba'im ken sh'not midbar
hotzenu mayim mi'even
katafnu man min he'anan
achalnu mar, zahav atafnu ta'egel
ad sheyad'anu nag'anu ba'ikar
t'shuvot k'mo dvash hem al even
hem lev haderech lamachar.

Az eifo ha'adam, she'lo nishkach et atzmeinu
ein le'an, livro'ach zeh betocheinu
kan o sham, ken hagalgal na
hu sov vasov, sov vasov.

Ken zeh haz'man
vehahistoria chozeret
chotzim ta'yam ve'od midbar vezeh lo nigmar
shovrim et ha'even, ve'od kotfim mip'ri hagan.

Az eifo ha'adam...

Ochlim od mar um'chorim lechol avar
kochniot sin'ah avdot rak lo ba'ikar
az mah kayam po beneinu?
Im mah holchim el hamachar?

Az eifo ha'adam...
