Translated lyrics
Though the storm is ever mounting Still our heads remain unbowed. We are ready to obey all commands, The Palmach will win - we've vowed. From Metulla to the Negev, From the sea to the desert plain, All our youth defend the homeland, Till we bring it peace again. In the eagle's path we follow, Over mountain tracks we go, Among stony heights and caverns We are seeking out the foe. When you summon us to battle, We will be there first by day or night, We are ready when you give the command, The Palmach will march in might.
