Original lyrics
Shecharchoret yikre'uni tsach hata uri. Rak milahat shemesh kayitz Ba li shechori. Chorus: Shecharchoret yafya/t kol-kach be'eynayich esh bo'eret libi kulo shelach. Shecharchoret yikre'uni kol yordei hayam Im od pa'am yikre'uni chish elech itam. Shecharchoret yikre'eni ben le'av molech. Im od pa'am yikre'eni acharav elech.
Translated lyrics
The dark one" they call me, but my skin was white. Only from the fire of summer sun came my dark complexion. O dark one, you are indeed beautiful. In your eyes a fire burns. My heart is all yours. The dark one" they call me, all the seafarers. If they call me once again I shall join them. The dark one" he calls me, the prince. If he calls me once again, I shall follow him.
Notes
