Description

"Zum Gali Gali" is a traditional Hebrew song relating to the formation of the State of Israel, originating sometime around its creation. The songs main verse goes, "Zum Gali, Gali, Gali, Zum Gali Gali." It was originally written in Hebrew and translated into English. Zum gali gali [rhythmic words, no meaning - but gal means wave and galgal means wheel, maybe this does matter to express continuity in some way]
I do not know the Hebrew words to this song, only the English translation. It is another that I learned from the BBC Radio Broadcast, Singing Together.
The pioneer for the sake of the work,
The work for the sake of the pioneer.
Quite unusually, when accompanying this song by guitar, there is only one chord throughout, Am.

Zum gali gali
Traditional
No capo

Am all the way through

Zum gali gali gali,
Zum gali gali,
Zum gali gali gali,
Zum gali gali.

Pioneers work hard on the land,
Men and women work hand in hand.
As they labour all day long,
They lift their voices in song.
From the dawn till setting sun
Everyone finds work to be done.
From the dawn till night does come
There's a task for everyone.
