Love Song

keshelo haya li bayit
When I had no home
yadayich hayu beyti
Your hands were my home
kevasim levanim yadayich,
White sheep your hands,
yadayich, ahuvati.
Your hands, my beloved.
keshelo haya lecha bayit
When you had no home
bichnaf meiley kisitech
I covered you in the hem of my coat
keshelo haya li el
When I had no God
mimaamakim karatech
From the depths I called to you
keshelo haya li bayit
When I had no home
velo hoyta shaa
And there was no hour
tilnu yechefim
We walked barefoot
beeretz niflaa
In a wondrous land
keshelo haya lanu bayit
When we had no home
sefatayich hayu beyti
Your lips were my home
tutim chamim sefatayich
Warm berries your lips
sefatayich ahuvati
Your lips, my beloved
