דרך ארוכה [Derech Aruka] [Transliteration]

Derech arukah

ani ke'of binedudav

ani keru'ach cheresh

yamim overet

sharah lah mistav el stav.

Derech rechokah

va'ani tzipor beleil sagrir

tzipor bli bayit,

mah hi

el mul shamaim

kshe'avad lah sof hashir.

Shir haru'ach al hamayim

velo harbeh g'vanim

mi ani hayom umah ani

batz'lilim hamish'tanim bashir?

Ksheha'or al pnei hamayim

yesh keshet shel g'vanim

mi ani hayom

mah hayom

mi ani bashir.

Derech rechokah

uvesofah atah nitzav

avo eleicha cheresh

keru'ach erev

nelech itah ad tom yachdav.

Derech arukah

va'ani tzipor t'luyah al bad

hoshet yadcha li,

k'ra li,

ki bashamaim

kol hashir sheli avad.

Shir haru'ach...
