Chorus:
Laylah yored le'aht
Veruach shoshan noshvah

zemer shel 'ahavah

Shachar homah yonah

'Eqt'fennu li.
An evening of Roses
Come let us go into the grove
Myrrh, spices and frankincense
are crushed beneath your feet

Chorus:
Night falls slowly
A lily breeze blows
Come, I'll whisper you a love song slowly,
A song of love

Dawn, a dove coos
Your drowsy head full of dew
Your lips a rose to the morn;
I'll pick it for myself.
