Graceful Apple ("Tapoach Chinanni") - Lior Elmaliach tapu'akh khinani - li'or elmali'akh תפוח חינני - ליאור אלמליח
Swaying tree nad ilan נד אילן
The wind caressed its top tsamarto litef haru'akh צמרתו ליטף הרוח
And kissed its leaves venashak alav ונשק עליו
There in the garden sham bagan שם בגן
My beauty plucked an apple yafati katfa tapu'akh יפתי קטפה תפוח
And her laughter is ivory (alluding to her perfect teeth) utskhoka shenhav וצחוקה שנהב
If I am a tree, she is wind lu ani ilan hi ru'akh לו אני אילן היא רוח
And she kissed me too venashka af li ונשקה אף לי
Then she will pick me, graceful apple od tiktof oti tapu'akh khinani עוד תקטוף אותי תפוח חינני
oh, when the day will break ho matai hayom yafu'akh הו מתי היום יפוח
And I will carry my voice ve'esa koli ואשא קולי
My beauty, come down and stroll in my garden yafati redi lasu'akh begani יפתי רדי לשוח בגני
