Lyrics: Khaim Nakhman Bialik
Music: Naomi Shemer
Sung by: Miri, Hanna and Andy

A new fashion is all the rage. Silk dresses and stripy shirts. In the orchard among the trees the kisses fly…
It’s a new fashion. Yesterday one girl, tomorrow the next, but Khezkeli my love is mine alone.

Minhag khadash ba lamdina
Simlat shesh ukhtonet pasim
la la la
Uve shabatot ben ha etzim
Porkhim ne shikot va-agasim

Minhag khadash ba lamdina
Na le me shi im kishu rim
la la la
Ve a lai tza var na ra akhat
tolim atzmam shnei be khurim

Minhag khadash ba lamdina
et mol khana makhar Pnina
la la la
Aval khez keli makh madi
li le va di li le va di
