Transliteration:

Shuv haeder noher bimvoot hakfar
V'ole haavak mishvile afar
v'harchek od tzemed inbalim
M'lave et meshech hatzlalim
Erev ba
Again the flock is flowing to the outskirts of the city
And the dust rises up from the paths
Far away the bells accompany the coming of the shadows
Evening comes, evening comes

 

Shuv haruach lochesh
Beyn gidrot ganim
Uvtzameret habrosh
Kvar namot yonim
Again the wind whispers
among the garden fences
And in the tops of the cypress trees
Doves are already sleeping

 

Verharchek al ketef hagva'ot
Od noshkot karnayim achronot
Erev ba
And far away, the last rays of sunlight still kiss
The shoulders of the hills
Evening has come

 

Shuv havered cholem
Chalomot balat
Uforchim kochavim
bamarom at at
Again the rose dreams
Its dreams in secret
And stars flower
little by little the sky

 

Verharchek ba'emek ha'afel
Melave hatan et bo halel
Layil rad
And far away, in the dark valley
The jackal accompanies the coming of night
Night has fallen
