Lyrics: Leah Goldberg
Music: Nini / Dor


Transliteration:

Et kol hakochavim taman,

Et hasahar ataf bishchor,
Mitsafon ve'ad teyman,
Ein keren or.


Veha boker alman neeman,
Sak afor al motnav yachgor,

Mitsafon ve'ad teyman,
Ein keren or.


Hadlikah-na ner lavan,
Be'ohel-libi hashachor,
Mitsafon ve'ad teyman,

Izrach ha'or.

Translation:


All the stars hidden away
And the moon in a pitch black night

From the north
And south to Yemen
Not a ray of light


Morning, loyal widower
Clutch your grey sack tight

From the north
and south to Yemen
Not a ray of light



No light, not a ray of light


Light a small white candle
In this darkened tent,

This heart of mine
From the north
And south to Yemen

Then a brilliant light will shine!

The light, the light will shine
