kumi utzi achoti kala
Rise and go forth, my sister, my bride
kumi utzi kumi tiri
Rise and go, rise and see
hitorri achoti hagedola
Awaken, my older sister
at eynayich achshav pakachey
Open your eyes wide now
olam amiti mechake sham bachutz
A real world waits outside
shetitapesi shetitpakechi
For you to clear your head and sober up
olam amiti ayef veratzutz
A real world, tired and bruised
kimat mitchanen lach shetelchi
Almost pleading for you to go
kumi utzi lach, kumi utzi lach
Rise and go, rise and go
harimi gavoha et roshech
Lift your head up high
at yodaat sheani choshevet rak alayich
You know that I think only of you
at yodaat sheani rotza betovotcha
You know that I want what's good for you
im titeni li rega lehabit beeynayich
If you'll give me a moment to look in your eyes
el toch libecha
Into your heart
hu lo bishvilech achoti kala
He is not for you, my sister, my bride
al titatzevi veal tivki
Don't be sad and don't cry
beraglayim kalot achoti chavula
On light feet, my wounded sister
rutzi achshav al techaki
Run now, don't wait
meeretz ochelet meeretz bogedet
From a land that devours, from a land that betrays
kumi usi lach yonati hatama
Rise and travel, my simple dove
kumi achshav el ever hadelet
Rise now toward the door
al techaki afilu sheni
Don't wait even a second
kumi utzi lach, kumi utzi lach
Rise and go, rise and go
harimi gavoha et roshech
Lift your head up high
at yodaat sheani choshevet rak alayich...
You know that I think only of you...
im kol yom sheover at megala
With every passing day you discover
shehasheket mimech vahola
That the quiet moves further away from you
kumi tzei achoti, tivrechi, titpakechi
Rise, go, my sister, flee, sober up
at yodaat sheani choshevet rak alayich...
You know that I think only of you...
