Karev Yom

Karev yom asher hoo lo yom v'lo lyla
Rahm hoda kee l'cha hayom af l'cha halayla
Shomrim hafked l'eercha kol hayom v'chol halyla
Ta'eer k'or yom kheshkhat lyla

Bring near the day is that is neither day nor night.
Most High, make known that Yours is the day as well as the night.
Appoint watchmen [to guard] Your city all day and all night.
Illuminate like day the dark of night.

Translation by Eve Levavi
