A gift, we seldom are wise enough,
Ever to prize enough

God would like us to be joyful
Even though our heats lie panting on the floor.
How much more can we be joyful
When there's really something to be joyful for
To Life, To Life, Lchaiim

It gives you something to think about,
Something to drink about,
Drink, Lchaiim, To Life
