mi yavo mi yitzleni ki cholat ahava ani
Who will come, who will save me, for I am sick with love
mi yavo mi yerapeeni mi yiten mazor lemachovey
Who will come, who will heal me, who will give remedy to my pain
basadot baleylot mehalechet yechefa
In the fields, walking at night, barefoot
nitrefa dati meal cholfa hitoffa
My mind has gone mad, flown above, taken flight
ahava me asita li me asita
Love, what have you done to me, what did you do
ahava mi yakshiv li mi yaskit ahava
Love, who will listen to me, who will attend — love
begufi sheli patzati bemitati beseter teshukati
In my own body I wounded myself, in my bed in the secret of my desire
bivsari az yadati ki cholat ahava ani
In my flesh I then knew: for I am sick with love
kol kore eley shamati mi ze omed befetach chaloni
A voice calling to me I heard — who stands at my window
ahuvi oto bikashti o haya ze rak bachalomi
My beloved, I sought him — or was it only in my dream
kasha chishol kina...
Strong as death is jealousy...
