For All These

Naomi Shemer

Al Kol Eleh

Al hadvash ve'al ha'okets
Al hamar vehamatok
Al biteynu hatinoket shmor eyli hatov.

Al ha'esh hamevo'eret
Al hamayim hazakim
Al Ha'ish hashav habayta
min hamerkhakim

Refrão
Al kol eyle, al kol eyle
Shmor nah li eyli hatov
Al hadvash ve'al ha'okets
Al hamar vehamatok.

Al na ta'akor natu'a
Al tishkakh et hatikvah
Hashiveyni va'ashuva
El ha'arets hatovah.

Shmor Eli al ze habayit
Al hagan, al hakhoma
Miyagon, mipakhad peta
Umimilkhama.

Shmor al hame'at sheyesh li
Al ha'or ve'al hataf
Al hapri shelo hivshil od
Veshene'esaf.

Merashresh ilan baru'akh
Merakhok nosher kokhav
Mish'alot libi bakhoshekh
nirshamot achshav.

Ana shmor li al kol eyle
Ve'al ahuvey nafshi
Al hasheket al habékhi
ve'al ze hashir.

For All These

For the honey and the sting
For the bitter and the sweet
For our little house, guard it, the good

For the burning fire
For the strong water
For the returning man from afar

Chorus
For all these, for all these
Guard, please, the good to me
For the honey and the sting
For the bitter and the sweet

Do not uproot the planted
Do not forget the hope
Return me and I will return
To the good land

Guard me on this house
On the garden, on the wall
From sorrow, from sudden fear
And from war

Guard the little I have
On the light and on the baby
On the fruit he did not yet taste
And that was gathered

From the top of the tree, a breeze
From afar carries a star
Questions of my heart in the darkness
Are answered now

Please guard me for all these
And for the loves of my soul
On the quiet, on the crying
And on this song.
