יִשָּׁאֲרוּ הַשִּׁירִים וּבָם קוֹלֵךְ
תִּשָּׁאֵר הַתִּקְרָה וּבָהּ מַבָּטֵךְ
יִשָּׁאֲרוּ רְחוֹבוֹתַיִךְ וּבָם צְעָדַי
תִּשָּׁאֲרִי אַתְּ וּבָךְ גַּעְגּוּעַי
יִשָּׁאֵר הַזַּעַם וּבוֹ דִּמְעוֹתַי
יִשָּׁאֲרוּ מִלִּים וּבָם לְחָנַי
יִשָּׁאֲרוּ סְפָרִים וּבָם קְרִיאָתִי
תִּשָּׁאֲרִי אַתְּ. וּבָךְ אַהֲבָתִי
יִשָּׁאֵר הַחוֹף וּבוֹ עִקְבוֹתַי
תִּשָּׁאֵר שִׁכְחָה וּבָהּ זִכְרוֹנוֹתַי
יִשָּׁאֵר הָאֲוִיר וּבוֹ נְשִׁימוֹתַי
תִּשָּׁאֲרִי אַתְּ וּבָךְ אֲנִי חַי
יִשָּׁאֲרוּ הַשִּׁירִים וּבָם קוֹלֵךְ
תִּשָּׁאֵר הַתִּקְרָה וּבָהּ מַבָּטֵךְ
יִשָּׁאֲרוּ רְחוֹבוֹתַיִךְ וּבָם צְעָדַי
תִּשָּׁאֲרִי אַתְּ וּבָךְ גַּעְגּוּעַי
The songs remain and in them is your voice.
The ceiling remains and in it is your glance.
Your streets remain and in them are my steps.
You remain, and in you is my yearning,
The rage remains and in it are my tears.
The words remain and in them are my tunes.
The books remain and in them is my reading.
You remain, and within you is my love,
The shore remains and in it are my footprints.
Forgetting remains, and in it are my memories.
The air remains, and in it are my breaths.
You remain, and within you I am alive,
The songs remain and in them is your voice.
The ceiling remains and in it is your glance.
Your streets remain and in them are my steps.
You remain, and in you is my yearning.
