Lyrics	Translation	Dance Step
Y’mina, y’mina	to the right, to the right	One step to the right, feet together.
Smola, smol	to the left	One step to the left, feet together.
L’fanim	forward	One step into the center, feet together.
Achora	backwards	One step back out, feet together.
Y’mina, y’mina	to the right, to the right	One step to the right, feet together.
Smola, smol	to the left	One step to the left, feet together.
L’fanim	forward	One step into the center, feet together.
Achora	backwards	One step back out, feet together.
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la		Skip around the circle to the right.
Echad, shtayim, shalosh!	one, two, three	Stop and clap, one, two, three.
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la		Skip around the circle to the right.
