Happy New Year (1)
A year has passed, a year has come
I raise my hands high;
a good year to you, Dad,
a good year to you, Mom,
a good year, a happy year!
A good year to my strong uncle
who watches over us
and to all the caretakers, in the city, in the village,
the blessing "be strong" is given
a good year, a good year!
A good year, brave little one,
riding high in the sky,
and with plenty of peace, a Hebrew king,
making his way through the waters
a good year, a good year!
A good year to every worker
in joy and also in struggle,
a sweet and good year
to every girl and boy!
A good year, a good year!
