Hava Nagila
I am a Persian (Iranian) and unlike what's being propagandized regarding the whole Iranian nation, have NO problems at all with Israelis nor Jewish people and Hava Nagila is a favorite Hebrew song of mine. So Let's Rejoice and dance :-)
| Transliteration | Hebrew Text | English Translation |
|---|---|---|
| Hava nagila | הבה נגילה | Let's rejoice |
| Hava nagila | הבה נגילה | Let's rejoice |
| Hava nagila venis'mecha | הבה נגילה ונשמחה | Let's rejoice and be happy |
| (repeat stanza once) | ||
| Hava neranenah | הבה נרננה | Let's sing |
| Hava neranenah | הבה נרננה | Let's sing |
| Hava neranenah venis'mecha | הבה נרננה ונשמחה | Let's sing and be happy |
| (repeat stanza once) | ||
| Uru, uru achim! | !עורו, עורו אחים | Awake, awake, brothers! |
| Uru achim b'lev sameach | עורו אחים בלב שמח | Awake brothers with a happy heart |
| (repeat line three times) | ||
| Uru achim, uru achim! | !עורו אחים, עורו אחים | Awake, brothers, awake, brothers! |
| B'lev sameach | בלב שמח | With a happy heart |

I remember some fellow school mates of mine trying to learn this song back in 1998 in Tehran.
(None of them were Jews!)
Awe, the second I saw the title of this song, I knew what it was! My high school choir sang it, and it was always one of my favorites! Thanks for posting this, I'd forgotten most of the lyrics, but now I can sing them again! :D
