ימי היו קלים [Yamai hayu kalim] [English translation]

My days were easy

The quiet breeze

Did not carry with it

My own moan

My days were beatiful

The flowing water

did not carry to the sea

My own tear

Oh, please never let

Your heart to be lost

Oh, please never know

The secret of love

How sad it is

The quiet breeze

Did not carry with it

My own moan

My days were beatiful

Always the stork

Not my longing

Did it carry on its journey

My days were clean and pure

And even the mirror

Did not see a tear

On my own eyelids

Oh, never...

How sad it is

Even the mirror

Did not see a tear

On my own eyelids

My days were easy

The quiet breeze

Did not carry with it

My own moan
