Alive

Hai

Listen my brother, I'm still alive, and my eyes still try to see the lightShim'u 'ekhay, ani 'od khay, u-shtey 'enay 'od nisa'ot la-'or
Many distances, but also flowers, and many years aheadRabim khokay, 'akh gam prakhay, u-lefanay shanim rabot misfor
I ask and pray - it's good that hope hasn't been lost yet'Ani sho'el u-mitpalel - tov she-lo 'avda 'od ha-tikva
Passing a song from generation to generation like a spring from ancient times until forever'Over mizmor mi-dor le-dor ke-ma'ayan me'az ve-'ad 'olam
I ask and pray - it's good that hope hasn't been lost yet'Ani sho'el u-mitpalel - tov she-lo 'avda 'od ha-tikva

Alive, alive, alive, yes, I'm still aliveKhay, khay, khay, ken, 'ani 'od khay
This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad, and today IZe ha-shir she-Saba shar 'etmol le-'Aba, ve-hayom 'ani
I'm still alive, alive, alive, the people of Israel are alive'Ani 'od khay, khay, khay, 'am Yisra'el khay
This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad, and today IZe ha-shir she-Saba shar 'etmol le-'Aba, ve-hayom 'ani

My days and nights, and in the sky the pillar of fire is still hereHomim yamay ve-lelotay, u-ve-shamay 'amud ha-'esh 'od kan
I sing without pause, I spread my hands, to my hands that are beyond the sea'Ashir bli day, 'efros yaday, le-yediday 'asher me-'ever yam
I ask and pray - it's good that hope hasn't been lost yet'Ani sho'el u-mitpalel - tov she-lo 'avda 'od ha-tikva

Alive, alive, alive, yes, I'm still aliveKhay, khay, khay, ken, 'ani 'od khay
This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad, and today IZe ha-shir she-Saba shar 'etmol le-'Aba, ve-hayom 'ani
I'm still alive, alive, alive, the people of Israel are alive'Ani 'od khay, khay, khay, 'am Yisra'el khay
This is the song that Grandpa sang yesterday to Dad, and today IZe ha-shir she-Saba shar 'etmol le-'Aba, ve-hayom 'ani

Listen my brother, I'm still alive, and my eyes still try to see the lightShim'u 'ekhay, 'ani 'od khay, u-shtey 'enay 'od nisa'ot la-'or
Then all my brothers and all my light and the children who are eager to return'Az kol 'ekhay u-khol 'orkhay u-le-vanay ha-meragshim lakhzor
I ask and pray - it's good that hope hasn't been lost yet'Ani sho'el u-mitpalel - tov she-lo 'avda 'od ha-tikva
