Or oleh baboker Al agam rachok (zocheret) Ken, ani zocheret Velo echdal velo eshtok Or shemevaser et Hahashkama, vehazricha (zocheret) Rak lir'ot od pa'am, Yoter mizeh eini tzricha.
Chorus: Shemesh, havi'u shemesh Im shamai me'unanim Otzemet et einai Aval hashemesh hi bifnim.
Or ba-tzawhawrayim al ha'adama (Zocheret) Al chelkat hamayim Ve'al shatil ve'al kama . Or yored ba'erev Al sedot chayai (zocheret) Od ani zocheret Zeh or yomi Zeh or yamai
Chorus
End: Or yored ba'erev (shemesh) Or ba-tzawhawrayim (shemesh) Or oleh baboker Or! |
Light rises in the morning On a distant lake (I remember) Yes, I remember And I won't stop and won't keep silent Light that heralds the Early rising, and the sunrise (I remember) Just to see it again More than this, I don't need.
Chorus: Sun, bring the sun If my skies are full of clouds I close my eyes But the sunlight is within
Light at noontime over the ground (I remember) Over the calm waters And over sapling and standing grain. Light descends in the evening Over the fields of my life (I remember) I still remember This is the light of my day This is the light of my days
Chorus
End: Light descends in the evening (sun) Light at noontime (sun) Light rises in the morning Light! |
