LAMAH NESHAMAH 
LAMA NESHAMA 

Hab'didut achshav ochezet bi beregesh
mach'zirah oti layamim shehayinu ohavim
eich hayinu mit'chabkim mul z'richat hashemesh
vechulam rak aleinu hayu mis'taklim

Kvar hechanti tochniyout shenagur beyachad,
he'atid hit'napetz li yashar bapanim
im hayit yoda'at eich kuli befachad,
gam halev mesarev lekabel et hamilim

Lamah neshamah kashah had'mamah
bein kol ha'anashim ani boded nora
la'olam at stam achat, bishvili kol ha'olam zo at
lo yachol levater alaich, na'arah

Ani chashavti she'achshav od nihyeh bekesher
he'emanti shehaderech tihyeh retzufah mich'sholim
lo moze et atzmi, ani sagur bacheder
mechakeh layom she'at ulai tis'lechi

Hakochot kvar azlu midakah shel nachat,
va'ani rak rotzeh elaich yafati
tni sikui katan shenihyeh beyachad,
eich uchal lehasir de'agah milibi

Lamah neshamah...
