Shomreni El
Shomreni el mikol mere'a
av harachaman bore olam,
harei hakol atah yode'a
umi ani rak ben adam
Kol yahavi aleicha melech
ha'er einai adon hakol
bachashechah ham'tze li derech
bah et'halech velo epol
Shomreni el miyetzer ra
hagen alai mikol tzarah
sh'mor ahuvai uvnei ami,
ush'mor alai gam me'atzmi
Min hametzer ekra aneni
rape nafshi mike'evah
rachem alai, nakeh mimeni
et hirhuri hata'avah
Shomreni el miyetzer ra...
Watch Over Me, God
Watch over me from all evil
Father, the merciful, Creator of the world,
You know everything
And I am just a human
Every king brings upon you
Illuminate my eyes, Lord of all
In the darkness, show me the way
In it, I will walk and not fall
Watch over me from the evil inclination
Protect me from all distress
Watch over my loved ones and my people,
And also watch over me from myself
From the distress I call to you
Heal my soul from hunger
Have mercy on me, cleanse me
From the thoughts of desire
Watch over me from the evil inclination...
