Hebrew words  

Od nashuva el nigun atik

Ve'hazemer yif ve'ye'erav

Od gavia meshumar nashik, nashik,

Alizei eiyanim ve'levav.

 

Tovu, tovu ohaleinu

ki, ki hamachol hif'tsia

 

Tovu, tovu ohaleinu

Od nashuva el nigun atik.


 Ancient Melody

We will yet return to the ancient melody

And the song will continue

We'll raise another glass,

with bright and cheerful eyes.

 

Our tents are filled with goodness

because the dance lifts us up

Our tents are filled with goodness

as we return to the ancient melody.
