Or haner nimhal b'or hayarei'ach
Al hakar sa'areich shafuch
Bachalon tzameret eitz porei'ach
V'hasheket chazar
Ro'im l'fi hachiyuch

Sa'ara hayta, hinei chalfa la
Ufanayich shuv rog'ot kifnei hayam
Im ha'or nosif lalechet hal'a
Od haderech raba
Hamasa adayin lo tam

Lo kala hi, lo kala darkeinu
V'einayich lifamim ko nugot
Od sadot porchim yesh lifaneinu
Od harim g'vohim
V'tzon'nei p'sagot

R'sisim shel or b'dimotayich
V'chiyuch shuv m'gashesh darko eilai
Kawl hatov odenu lifanayich
Simi rosh al k'teifi
Tni li yadeich b'yadi

Od m'at yitam haner, ligvoha
Od m'at yuvas hasheket hamvorach
Hamulat hayom tatchil lifko'a

Lo telchi l'vadeich
Ani eh'yeh sham itach

~~~~~~~~~~~
The candle's light blends with the moonlight
Your hair is spread across the pillow
At the top window, a tree blossoms
And the silence has returned
Ones sees according to one's smile

The storm was here, now it's passed
And your face is again calm like the sea
With the light, we'll continue to go further
The road is still long
The journey is not yet over

It's not easy, our path is not easy
And your eyes sometimes are so sad
More blossoming fields are before us
More high mountains
With cool summits

Fragments of light are in your tears
And a smile again gropes its way towards me
All the good is still before you
Put your head on my shoulder
Put your hand in mine

Very soon the candle will finish dying out
Very soon the blessed quiet will be routed
The commotion of the day will begin to
break through
You won't walk alone
I'll be there with you
