Lyrics:

When you come to Eretz Yisroel after working on a field
A special mitzvah is required of the first fruits it does yield
Bikurim reminds us that our toil was a success
All our work and our first fruits by Hashem were blessed

In the empty, lonely desert many mitzvos were explained
We accepted them all by answering amein
Hayom hazeh nihyesa le’am, a nation to Hashem we did become
To the Torah we are true, we’re the chosen few

These merits of the past have always helped us through
Each day is hayom hazeh by doing mitzvos that finally we know
Hayom hazeh nihyesa le’am, a nation to Hashem we did become
To the Torah we are true, we’re the chosen few.
