השיר של אופיר [Hashiyr shel ofir] [Transliteration]

Al tivki yalda im at holehet

Al tivki muli ze rak yah'iv li

At ale katan lifney ha-shalehet

Ma shavim hayay im at lo kan

Ma tavkish binti, ma tavkish ya shetzi

Nati kol hayati, ya du ayani

Ma tavkish binti, ma tavkish ya ruhi

Nati kol hayati, lo tamshi ash ijrael 1

Kol neshima kan bil'adaih meyaseret oti

Ein li shemesh ba-haloni

Smai liya nati ya galbi

Nati mazal sjira hayef aleik ya ruhi

hayef aleik yabinti 1

Horef kvar halaf ve-at lo-zoheret

Et hadreh ha-katan bo bilinu shaot

Ma tavkish binti, ma tavkish ya ruhi

Nati kol hayati, lo tamshi ash ijrael 2

Kol neshima kan bil'adaih meyaseret oti

Ein li shemesh ba-haloni

Smai liya nati ya galbi

Wana saaran leili

Wana saaran yabinti 1

Smai liya nati ya galbi

Nati mazal sjira hayef alaik ya ruhi 2

Paam haiti be-leylotaih menagenet iti

Eifo halht li ahuva
