mey nahar zormim
The waters of a river flow
elu hem yemey chayeycha
These are the days of your life
hem mimey chayeycha
They are the waters of your life
nishtafim bazerem
Swept in a current
shematchil im geshem rishon
That begins with the first rain
mey nahar zormim
The waters of a river flow
elu hem palgey hamayim
These are the streams of water
sheyagiu el midbar govea
That will reach a dying desert
im hasheket sheyavo
With the quiet that will come
gam im ashte et kol hayam
Even if I drink all the sea
hu lo yerave et tzimoni
It will not quench my thirst
leod yom karov eleycha
For one more day close to you
leod yom bizrootayich
For one more day in your arms
gam im eshev mitachat shemesh
Even if I sit beneath the sun
lo yisrefu oti karney
Its rays will not burn me
kemo libi nisraf belehavot ahavotcha
Like my heart burns in the flames of your love
