Hebrew Lyrics

Yavesh hakaitz be-ito
Be-har haGilboa
Nishan Shaul al chanito
Be-har haGilboa
Rak na'ar gar imo
Rak na'ar mibney Amalek
Yavesh vacham yavesh vacham
Hakaitz ba'emek

Nifras ha'erev beraglav
behar haGilboa
Haya hakaitz kmo achshav
Be'har haGilboa
Mineged haTavor
Vehar haChermon bamerchak
Ke'ilu lo avru shanim
Be'har haGilboa

Otam slayim slayim schunim
behar haGilboa

Chorus:
Ulai haya sharav
Uali zo hayta shat shkia'a
Ulai shkiat zahav
Kmo hayom be'ota hasha'a

Translation

On Mount Gilboa

How dry and hot is the summer time
On Mount Gilboa
King Soul leaned on his lance
On Mount Gilboa
Only a boy from the Amalek people
stayed with him
The summer in the valley is dry and hot

The evening spreads at his feet on Mount Gilboa
It was summer time - just like now
Mount Tavor on the opposite side
Mount Chermon can be seen from a distance
It's like it was yesterday
On Mount Gilboa

May be it was a heat wave
May be sunset time
May be a golden sunset like today -
at the same time
