Hinech Yafa
Bamitati kvar shavuot bikashti
Et she'ahavah nafshi velo matsativ
Chipasti bav kol rechovot hair ha'amusah
Shkarim hazot velo matsativ
Matsuni hashomrim hasovevim bair
Ach ahuvi kimat velo matsati oto
Ach lo erpe mimenu ad she avi'o el toch iri
El beit imi ve'el chadri, el mitati
Hinech yafah raiti
Vesiftotaich chut sheni
Shinayich levanot kmo or halevanah
Mi zot olah min hamidbar me'eretz rechokah
Niset al knaf tsipor gdolah?
Higiya leveiti
Hinech yafah raiti
Ani nignav mishtei einaich shesorfot oti
Ke'esh halehavah
Mi zot olah min hamidbar me'eretz rechokah
Niset al knaf tsipor gdolah?
Higiya leveiti
You are Beautiful
In my bed, I have already waited weeks
For the love of my soul, and I did not find it
I searched in all the streets of the crowded city
These lies, and I did not find it
I found the guards who patrol the city
But my beloved almost, and I did not find him
But I will not let go of him until he comes into my city
Into my mother's house, into my room, into my bed
You are beautiful, I have seen
Your lips are a thread of scarlet
Your teeth are like a flock of sheep
Who is this coming up from the wilderness
Like a great bird on the wing?
He has arrived at my house
You are beautiful, I have seen
I have stolen the gaze of your eyes that have captured me
Like the flame of love
Who is this coming up from the wilderness
Like a great bird on the wing?
He has arrived at my house
