Just a little more, a little further,

The dream will come true,

In a little while we’ll reach the land of Israel.

In the moonlight I see my mother’s face,

Looking at me. ‘Mother, don’t leave me.’

If she were only with me

She would be able to convince them

That I’m a Jew.

Just a little more, a little further…

Just a little more, a little further,

We’ll soon be saved

We won’t stop walking until we reach the land of Israel.

With knives and sharp swords.

My mother bled in the desert,

And with the Moon as my witness,

I promised my young brothers:

Our bag of food is gone the desert is endless; The jackals howl, And my mother promises my young brother
