Pete Seeger - Tzena, Tzena, Tzena lyrics

Zeina, zeina, zeina, zeina
Dabkeh nihdbek nurkus hora bleilet twa adna
Yalla ma'ana, rudu ma'ana
Rudu ma'ana, rudu ma'ana ghrannu ya ah bab
Zeina, zeina, dabkeh nihdbek yalla
Nurkus hora ya as ha-a-a-ab
Yalla ma'ana, yalla rudu ma'ana
Ah lan bikom ya as hab!
Zeina, zeina, zeina, zeina

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
We dance the Dabkeh, we dance the hora
One night we have a get-together
Come on, let's go, let's go, come on
Repeat with us, sing with us, oh beloved
Beautiful, beautiful, let us dance the
Dabkeh, dance the hora, oh friends
Come on with us, repeat with us
Welcome, oh friends
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Tsenna, Tsenna, Tsenna, Tsenna
Habanot urenna Khaverim, ba'im la'ir
Alna, alna, alna, alna, Alna titkhabenna
Umizor yakhdav nashir
Tsenna, tsenna, Habanot urenna, Khaverim
Ba'im la'ir alna, alna, Alna titkhabenna
Umizor yakhdav nashir tsenna, Tsenna, Tsenna

Come out, come out, girls
See friends in the village
Don't be, don't be shy
Let's sing and dance all of us together!
Come out, come out, come out

Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena
Can't you hear the music playing
In the city square?
Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena
Come where all our friends will find us
With the dancers there

Tzena, Tzena! Join the celebration
There'll be people there from every nation
Dawn will find us laughing in the sunlight
Dancing in the city square

Tzena, Tzena (CLAP) , Come and dance the hora
Dance the dabkeh all of
Us will dance together tzena, Tzena
(CLAP) , When the band is playing
My heart's saying, "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena!"
