Lyrics:

And Miriam the prophetess took the timbrel in hand
and led the women down to the sea,
and there they danced and they sang.

Shiru lashechinah a song of thanks for this day of liberation.

Miriam, Miriam,
bimheirah, bimheirah,
na' lamdinu, na' lamdinu,
rikudayich, rikudayich.

[Miriam, come quickly! Please teach us your dances!]

Dancing the songs of freedom
by the riverside,
oh, you were dancing the songs of freedom
by the riverside.

Singing the dance of freedom.....
by the riverside,
oh, you were singing the dance of freedom
by the riverside.
