YOM SHISHI
 FRIDAY NIGHT
 

Hashavua matchil
Meuchar karaguil
Ein li coach lakum,
ein li cheshek leklum
Yom rishon dicaon; Yom sheni atzbani
Yom shlishi lo nigmar; revii meiutar
Ubeyom chamishi matzav ruach chofshi
Ze kvar sof hashavua
Umachar yom shishi

Yom shishi at yodaat
Iesh bair messibá
Nisharim col halaila
Ad haboker haba
Yom shishi at iodaat
Vehaiom bemeiutar
Im tirtzi col halaila
Hu shelanu levad

Az ani metalfen mitachnen mitconen
Mitkaleach shaa mitbonen bamar'a
Mechate yabalot umerim mishkalot
Meshachrer kivutzim umoteach kfitzim

Kshe harosh messudar lo ichpat shum davar
Yom shishi kvar maguiá
Hashavuá nigmar

Yom shishi...

Ksheover yom shabat
vehazman zaz le'at
ani shuv meyuvash, od shavu'a chadash
be'ayot, inyanim, chadashot, itonim
vehakol shigarti, shi'amum amiti
az achshav ani kan, ma'avir et hazman
ein li derech livro'ach, lo yode'a le'an.

Yom shishi...

The week starts,
late as usual,
I don't have the strength to get up,
I don't have the will to do anything,
Sunday - depression, Monday - nervous,
Tuesday doesn't end; Thursday improves,
and Friday - the mood is free,
it's already the end of the week,
and tomorrow is Friday.

Friday you know
there's a party in town,
staying all night,
until the next morning.
Friday you know,
and today improves,
if you want, all night,
is our alone.

So I call, beg, get ready,
shower for an hour, set myself up in the mirror,
Mechate iebalot umerim mishkalot
Meshachrer kivutzim umoteach kfitzim

When the head is ready, nothing matters,
Friday is already here,
the week is done.

Friday...

When Saturday passes,
and time moves slowly,
I'm dry again, another new week,
problems, issues, news, reports,
and everything's done, real boredom.
So now I'm here, passing the time,
I don't have a way to escape, I don't know where to.

Friday...
