When we were children, we loved in secretKeshe-hayinu yeladim, 'ahavnu be-sodey sodot
Who were we precious to - only to uncles and aunts'El mi hayinu nekhmadim - rak le-dodim u-le-dodot
And the poor girls endured, the sweet ones - they only received blowsVe-ha-banot ha-miskenot savlu, ha-metukot - hen rak makot kiblu
And what we truly felt, we only whispered in the Bet languageVe-'et ma she-hirgashnu be'emet lakhashnu rak bi-sfat ha-Bet
