Befeh maleh ani modeh

Avir harim zach vetzalul
Yarok vechum bemida

Kol she’ertze bach emtza
Yafa at li vegam lo
Yafa la’olam kulo
Yafo hi li keIstanbul
Lo tzarich bichlal et chul
MiVenetzia hatzafon

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL FOR ME
I fully admit
I am in love with you
I will not find one
more beautiful than you
You have honey and milk
Mountains air, fresh and pure
Green and brown equally
Who needs to go overseas?
I will find here all that I need
You are beautiful for me and him
Beautiful to the whole world
Yafo is like Istanbul
We don’t need to be overseas
The north is like Venice,
Eilat’s harbor like Hawaii
The Mediterranean shores,
my country the longing of my life
You have been achieved
with blood, sweat and tears
I am tired of wandering;
I will love you until the end
You are the whole world,
the longing of my ancestors
My soul rises in front of your beauty
My roots are here
You are beautiful…….
