Hey tziyunyunai haderech,
Avanim lavavanot
Tov lashut tarmil al shechem
El bli an harchek lindod.
Bayn Ayelet u Metullah
Sham ayafti va eshev
Perach chen liktof chafatzti
Veninatz li koz balev.
Hey tziyunyunai haderech,
Avanim lavavanot
Tov laschut tarmil al schechem
El bli an harchek lindod.
Et haykum pitom lefeta
Arpilim helitu lot
Kchol merchav gazlu mineni
shtey eynayim kechulot.

Hey tziyunyunai haderech,
Avanim lavavanot
Tov laschut tarmil al shechem
El bli an harchek lindod.
Beyn Ayelet u Metulla
Tarmili nafal bagay
Yad raka sham beleyl choshech
Gazeza machlefotay.
Hey tziyunyunai haderech,
Avanim lavavanot
lo etze ode'lo abliga
El bli an harchek lindod.
