Mirdaf

Eretz tovah shehadvash be'orkeha
Ach dam benachaleha kemayim nozel.

Eretz asher harereha nechoshet
Aval atzabeha barzel.

Eretz asher mirdafim koroteha,
Alpayim dapim ve'od daf,
Ad shenisraf
Od me'at kol chamtzan re'oteha
Biglal merutzat hamirdaf.

Eretz asher yirdefuha oyveha
Vehi et oyveha tirdof bemirdaf.

Hi et oyveha tasig, ach oyveha
Heim lo yilkeduha bechaf.

Zo haro'ah chayeha mi'negged
T'luyim ka'aleh hanidaf

Hi yere'ah
Aval kemo lo hayta klal mud'eget
Tamtin ad letom hamirdaf.

Tom hamirdaf mistater benakik
Umatzpin et panav bemachbo, bemachbo,

Ach lesofo hu yavo kemo hashemesh
Asher mimizrach hi tavo.

Az lo yoter imahot tekonenah
Velo al b'neihem ha'avot,
Ken hu yavo
Veragleinu ad az lo til'enah
Lirdof be'ikvei hatikvot.
