Tu B'Shvat Songs
This is a song that Israeli children are taught in school.
Words: Yisrael Dushman
Melody: Menashe Ravina

Hashkedia porachat, veshemesh paz zorachat
Tziporim merosh kol gag mevasrot et boh hachag
Tu B'shvat higiah, chag la'ilanot!

Ha'aretz meshava'at, higiah eit ha lata'at!
Kol echad yikach lo etz, be'itim neitzei chotetz
Tu B'shvat higiah, chag la'ilanot!

Nita kol hahr vageva, miDan v'ad Be'ersheva,
V'artzeinu shuv nirash, eretz zeit yitzhar ud'vash.
Tu B'shvat higiah, chag la'ilanot!

The almond trees are white,
The sun is shining bright,
Singing birds from every dome
Tell us Tu B'shvat has come, the holiday of trees!

The land is yearning,
the time has come for planting
Each one takes a tree, with shovels we'll get it done
Tu B'shvat is coming, the holiday of trees!

We'll plant each hill and height,
from Dan until Beersheva
Our land we'll again inherit, the land of olive oil and honey,
Tu B'shvat is coming, the holiday for trees!

The March of the Planters
Kach Holchim Hashotlim
Words: Y. Sheinberg
Music: Y. Admon
Kach holchim hashotlim
Ron baleiv v'eit atid
Min ha'ir umin hakfar
El kol gay v'har nechmad
B'Tu B'shvat!

Lama batem hashotlim?
Nach bakarkah uvatsor
V'gumot saviv nachpor
Beharim uvamishor
B'tu B'shvat!

Ma yehe poh hashotlim?
Shatil yavo bechol guma
Ya'ar ad yifrosh tsilo
Al artzeinu aruma
B'Tu B'shvat

There go the planters
Glad in heart and spade in hand
From the city and village
To every beautiful mount and valley
On Tu B'shvat!

Why did you come, planters?
Dig up the ground and rocks
And we will dig the ditches
round about In the hills and in the plains
On Tu B'shvat

What will be here, planters?
In every ditch there will be a
sapling. An evergreen forest will spread its shade
On our barren land
On Tu B'shvat.
