Ve'ulai

VE'ULAI - AND PERHAPS
(Kinneret Sheli) (My Kinneret)

Ve'ulai - lo hayu hadvarim me'olam
Ve'ulai - lo hishkamti im shachar lagan
Le'avdo beze'at apay...

Me'olam - bayamim arukim veyokdim
(arukim veyokdim) shel katsir
Bimromei agalah amusat alumot
Lo natati koli bashir

Me'olam lo taharti bitchelet shoktah
uvatom

Chorus
Shel Kinneret sheli,
hoy Kinneret sheli
Heyayit, o chalamti chalom?

And Perhaps
And perhaps - these things never happened
And perhaps - I never rose at dawn to plant
the fields with my own hands...

Never - on the long days
(long) of harvest

I did not give my voice to sing.

Never did I purify myself in your azure waters
with innocence

Chorus
Of my Kinneret,
oh my Kinneret.
Perhaps it was a dream.
