Lyrics

Haru'akh noshevet krira,
nosifa keysam lam'doura.
Vekhakh bizro'ot argaman
ba'esh ya'ale kekorban.
Ha'esh mehav'hevet
shira melavlevet
sovev lo, sovev hafinjan.
La, la, la,...

Ha'esh lakeysam telakhesh,
admu ko paneynou ba'esh.
Im lanu tigboret tutan
mikol bdal anaf shebagan.
Kol etz vekhol keresh
yashir azay kheresh
sovev lo, sovev hafinjan.
La, la, la,...

Translation

The wind it blows cold here tonight,
Add wood so the fire burns bright
And thus in the arms of the flame
Our song will rise up once again

A crackling fire,
Our voices lift higher
As coffeepot perks on the flame.

Aye, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, yai yai
Coffeepot perks on the flame.
Aye, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, yai yai
Yai yai yai yai yai yai, yai yai yai yai yai yai
Coffeepot perks on the flame.

The wind's blowing colder tonight
We're warmed by the flames burning bright
We lift up our voices to sing,
Secure in the friendship you bring

Our song is inspired
By flames that rise higher
And friends who join in as we sing.

Aye, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, yai yai
And friends who join in as we sing.
Aye, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, ya ya yai, yai yai
Yai yai yai yai yai yai, yai yai yai yai yai yai
And friends who join in as we sing.
