Hayinu yachad shneinu zug yonim
idilia shekazot bamishpachah
vekachah zeh nim'shach,
zeh nim'shach harbeh shanim
ad sheyom echad hi kamah vehalchah.

Mah karah mah karah mah karah
nesovev et hagalgal bechazarah
lemakom she'hu yigash
sham nat'chil shuv mechadash
bo el kav hahat'chalah.

Pa'am nishbe'ah li emunim
ein li ish acher levad mimech
lachashah li be'oznai velitfah et hapanim
ufit'om parsah k'nafaim uvarchah.

Mah karah...

Lamah hi halchah lo ed'a
et kol chayay natati bishvilah
im yesh sikui katan vehatikvah lo avudah
hi tavo veshuv nat'chil mehat'chalah
