Zemer Atik
Od nasuva el nigun atik
vehazemer yif veye'erav
Od gavia meshumar nashik, nashik,
alizei einayim ulevav.
Tovu, tovu ohaleinu
ki machol hiftsi'a
Tovu, tovu ohaleinu,
od nashuva el niguyn
Auf Englisch:
Ancient melody
We will return again to an ancient melody
and the song will linger on.
When we raise our glasses together
our eyes and hearts will be bright.
How good are our tents
because there's dancing there.
How good are our tents
still we return to an ancient melody.
