Kol hayom ani yoshevet bakibuts
Bayad sigar veze margish li ktsat chamuts
Kol hazman rak dika'on veshi'amum
Im lo egmor, ze yigamer mamash bebum
Oh… be happy

Kol hayom batelevizia milchamot
Ube'Ostralia shuv hitchilu shitfonot
Hine ba hadika'on shel yom rishon
Ani rotsa, ani rotsa melafefon
Oh… be happy

Ze lo chochma le'ehov rak ksheyesh lecha cheshek
Ani rotsa la'aѕot et ze ito kol hayom
Oh… be happy
