  • Lyrics

In The Galilee, At Tel Hai

In the Galilee, at Tel Hay

Trumpeldor fell

For our nation for our land

The hero Joseph fell

By way of mountains and hills

He ran to redeem the name of Tel Chay

Saying to brothers there:

Go in my footsteps

By way of mountains and hills

He ran to redeem the name of Tel Chay

Saying to brothers there:

Go in my footsteps

In every place

And every moment

You will remember me

For I fought and also fell

For my motherland

All day I ploughed

And at night I held my gun's barrel in my hand

Till the last moment

All day I ploughed

And at night I held my gun's barrel in my hand

Till the last moment
