lyrics

From Saturday morning Shabbat services

Ilu finu malei shira ka-yam (x2)
Ulshoneinu rinah
Ka-hamon galav

Ein anachnu maspikim l’hodot lekha (x2)
Al achat mei-elef alfei alafim

Translation:
Were our mouths as full of song as the sea
And our tongues singing joyously like the multitude of its’ waves

We would still not have enough to thank You
For even one of the hundreds of thousands of moments of kindness with which You have blessed us.
