AHAVA BAT ESRIM

Yad'anu esh, yad'anu ra'am
ve'ahavah bat esrim
Barachnu zeh mizo lo pa'am
aval hayinu chozrim
Vecheder zeh odo shomer
zichron yamim yafim yoter
ik'vot sufah asher barchah lah
kan pa'am shum davar eino domeh
le'asher avar, le'asher chomek
le'asher holech itanu hal'ah

Yafah sheli
at yechidah um'chushafah sheli
me'or hashachar ad levo leili
ohev otach, ohev adayin

Ani makir(ah) et kishufayich

she'et gufech hishvi'u nachat
hen ach'rei kichlot hakol
hayah li kisharon gadol
lehizdaken itach beyachad
