Leil chanayah, bekol dvarim, bis'chok, begedef
behamulat melachot hu kam, hineh hino
k'mo pnei ir niv'net
panav shel s'deh haketel
behitpares hamachaneh asher dino
lihyot shofech dam ha'adam umagino.
Leil chanayah, leil zemer, leil sh'chakim raku'a
leil rov m'lachot chof'zot, leil ed min had'vadim
leil shemosech et kishufah shel re'ut ru'ach
bevinyanah shel mam'lachah, leil nedudim
nitzav parus al hayachid vehag'dudim.
Mitoch ashmoret rishonah, bein chof vagev'a
hayah nish'kaf pit'om mar'eh hamilchamah
k'mo havai tzo'en, chavui yated vachevel
bo cherutam shel masa'ot vecherumam
bo hakelim vehachukot be'eirumam.
Leil chanayah, leil zemer...
Bo melitzat sismot hazman, asher lo parak
shirah tz'rufah ben ya'asok, chalilah lo
verak hazemer hanafutz, she'lo davar erech
ve'lo shayechet chemdah hu, yish'an bemilu
tzavachat tziv'av hacharifim al chalilo.
Al ahavah hu medaber (bah hu pote'ach)
ve'al chovah vek'rav ve'ol, hakol bechol
ein hu omer et zot bechol dakuyoteiha
shel hashirah, aval omer bekol gadol
bli morcha lev uvli chashash mipnei hazol.
Leil chanayah, leil zemer...
Et milchamah gam tzelem hadvarim ha'eleh
hayah tzalmah lekol zimrat pizmon to'ah
od yim'shechu hamah k'mo nimah michelek
nafsho shel dor, gam besadeh zro'ah

Gam zeh neshalev bamilchamah kol zeh gam yachad
k'mo avachat aviv nim'sach

Kol zeh mitel umig'dot nachal yihyeh
oleh biye'af vesham nikta bilel
shel ish zonek ve'ish yoreh ve'ish nofel,
shel ish zonek ve'ish yoreh ve'ish nofel...
