🎵 Lyrics – Chai by OFRA HAZA (Israel, 1983)

Shim'u, echai, ani od chai
Ushtei enai od nisa'ot la'or
Rabim chochai, ach gam prachai
Ulefanai shanim rabot misfor

Ani sho'el umitpalel
Tov shelo avda od hatikva

Over mizmor midor ledor
Kema'ayan me'az ve'ad olam

Ani sho'el umitpalel
Tov shelo avda od hatikva

Chai, chai, chai
Ken, ani od chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Ani od chai, chai, chai
Am Yisra'el chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Homim yamai (Chai, chai)
Velelotai (Chai, chai)
Uveshamai, amud ha'esh od kam

Ashir bli dai (Chai, chai)
Efros yadai (Chai, chai)
Leyedidai asher me'ever yam

Ani sho'el umitpalel
Tov shelo avda od hatikva

Chai, chai, chai
Ken, ani od chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Ani od chai, chai, chai
Am Yisra'el chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Shim'u, echai, ani od chai
Ushtei enai od nisa'ot la'or
Az ko lechai lechol orchai
Ulevanay hamevakshim lachzor

Ani sho'el (Ani sho'el)
Umitpalel (Mitpalel)
Tov shelo avda od hatikva

Chai, chai, chai
Ken, ani od chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Ani od chai, chai, chai
Am Yisra'el chai
Ze hashir sheSaba shar etmol le'Aba
Vehayom ani

Chai, chai, chai
Ani od chai, chai, chai
