You stand alone before the blue of the skies
noshek selaim azey mabat
Kissing the rocks with a bold gaze
libechem tiseu el kachol hamayim
Lift your hearts to the blue of the waters
el kachol hamayim bamifratz
To the blue of the waters in the bay
umisaviv kemo em ohevet
And all around, like a loving mother
lecha otrim harey anak
Mighty mountains crown you
harucha kan bachan lotefet
The wind here caresses with grace
locheshet shir belachan dak
Whispering a song in a delicate melody

Oh, the Bay of Solomon
mifratz noshek chofim
A bay that kisses the shores
lecha yashiru po
Even the seagulls will sing
shirim gam hashechafim
Their songs for you here
haofek rak becha yashgicha
The horizon will gaze upon you alone
eyn po meum milevad shalva
There is nothing here but tranquility
kol even kan li hen tasicha
Every stone here will speak to me
ki ze makom leahava
For this is a place made for love
kol gal katan sochef beregesh
Each small wave sweeps with feeling
umdagdeg beshovvut
And tickles with playfulness
vegam hachof yasicha cheresh
And the shore too will whisper quietly
sipur shel yofi uvdidut
A story of beauty and solitude
uvamaamakim harchek bamayim
And in the depths, far beneath the waters
noshek hadag el mul almog
A fish kisses beside a coral
uchmo yarutz yishlach yadayim
As if running, stretching out its fins
kore leketzef shenamog
Calling to the foam that dissolves
hen rak etmol totach hirtia
Only yesterday a cannon fired in warning
sherikat pagaz sima hakerav
A shell's whistle ended the battle
halvay shepo shalom nishma
If only peace could be heard here
shalva lechal over vashav
Tranquility for all who pass by
