Hebrew Lyrics

Banu bli kol vachol
anu aniyei etmol.
Lanu hagoral masar
et milionei hamachar.
Tsena lama'agal,
ten na shir mizmor ladal.
Hena ne'esfu lirkod
b'nai ha'oni vehashod.
Hora ali, ali!
Esh hadliki beleili,
T'hora rabat ora,
hora medura.

Translation

We came with nothing,
we, the poor of yesterday.
Fate gave us
the millions of tomorrow.
Come out to the circle,
give a song to the poor.
Here gathered to dance,
sons of poverty and the spoils.
Hora arise, arise!
Light a fire in my night,
pure and full of light,
hora of the campfire.
