boi, teni li yad venelech, al tish’ali oti le’an, al tish’ali oti al osher, ulai gam hu yavo, keshe hu yavo, yered aleinu kemo geshem

boi, nitchabek venelech, al tish’ali oti matai, al tish’ali oti al bait, al tevakshi mimeni zman — zman lo mechake, lo otzer, lo nish’ar

(come, give me your hand and let’s go, don’t ask me where, don’t ask me about wealth, maybe it too will come, when it comes it will descend upon us like rain

(come, let us kiss and go, don’t ask me when, don’t ask me about a house, don’t ask time from me — time doesn’t wait, doesn’t stop, doesn’t stay.)
