Lyrics: Yoav Ginai
Lif'amim nidme she'eyn tiqva (Sometimes it seems like there's no hope)
vehakol nir'e kol kakh afel velo yadu'a. (And everything looks so dark and
unknown)
Haprachim od lo parchu bagan uvasade, (The flowers had yet to blossom in the
field and in the garden)
uva'erev raq maka haru'ach. (And in the evening there's just wind)
Az bo'u venadliq beyachad ner (So let's light a candle together)
Light a candle,
light a candle with me.
A thousand candles in the dark
will open our hearts.
Lif'amim nir'e shehamachar
lo yavi po nechama labechi velatsa'ar,
vehalayla ha'arokh nimshakh bli havtacha,
veha'afela chada kata'ar.
Az bo'u venadliq beyachad ner
Light a candle,
light a candle with me.
A thousand candles in the dark
will open our hearts.
Light all the candles,
let's light the candles everywhere.
Just look at me and take my hand.
The heat of love will glow again.
