Re’akh Tapu’akh Odem Shani
Shuvi tziporet al kenaf ha-ru’ach
Kvar b’gani petakh ha-samdar
Bosem limon nitzat ha-tapu’akh
Geshem halakh ve-khoref avar

Ho mi yavi lakh zo ha-igeret
Mi yisa’ekh kalah el g’ani
Ken lakh evneh al bad u-tzameret
Re’akh tapu’akh odem shani

Bo’i na, bo’i tzviat ha-khemed

Shuvi tzviya el eres ha-tzvi

Ho mi yavi lakh zo ha-igeret
Mi yisa’ekh kalah el g’ani
Ken lakh evneh al bad u-tzameret
Re’akh tapu’akh, re’akh tapu’akh
Re’akh tapu’akh odem shani

Apple Fragrance, Scarlet Red
Return, little bird, on the wing of the wind
Already in my garden blooms the samdar
The fragrance of lemon, the apple has blossomed
The rain has gone, and winter has passed

Oh, who will bring you this letter?
Who will carry you, bride, to my garden?
I will build you a nest of cloth and treetop
Apple fragrance, scarlet red

Come now, come, gentle gazelle
The fields are dressed in dew
The sun has already blushed for us
And in our cup, red wine

Oh, who will fly, messenger in the sky?
Who will bring you the news of spring?
Who will carry you, bride, on wings?
Who will return you to my garden?

Return now, return, for winter is over
A new dawn, summer has come
Return to me, your nest, little bird
Return, gentle gazelle, to the deer’s cradle

Oh, who will bring you this letter?
Who will carry you, bride, to my garden?
I will build you a nest of cloth and treetop
Apple fragrance, apple fragrance
Apple fragrance, scarlet red
