A Girl Named Kineret
At the foot of the mountain, on the bank of the river,She sat by herself - Do you know her secret?The Jordan was then silentThe (Mount) Chermon again laughedOnly the silence told, that she waited for him.
The rustle of the Jordan was still heard in the airAnd the soft sound of weeping, of the girl whose name is...
Kineret, Kineret, KineretThe wind sings to youThe wind sings to youAnd the sun over the Jordan shines for youSetting on the mountain
So the hours passedAnd the sunsets passedAnd each sad evening called her to returnBut here she will sitAs the wind blowsA sea of tears flowing from her cheeks to the shore
Then the rustle of the Jordan was still heard all aroundAnd the soft sound of weeping, of the girl whose name is...
Kineret, Kineret, KineretThe wind sings to youThe wind sings to youAnd the sun over the Jordan shines for youSetting on the mountain
In the light of daySuddenly she was not seenAt the mountain, on the bank of the riverFacing the Jordan and its wavesFacing (Mount) Chermon and its snowsOnly her weeping remainedBut he did not return
Then the rustle of the Jordan was still heard all aroundOn the sea of tears that is called by her name...
Kineret, Kineret, KineretThe wind sings to youThe wind sings to youAnd the sun over the Jordan shines for youSetting on the mountainKineret, Kineret, KineretThe wind sings to youThe wind sings to youAnd the sun over the Jordan shines for youSetting on the mountain
