Come along, and join me.
I’m Leli. Are you ready?
It’s not just me alone,
now it’s all of us.

We’ll start our journey,
a journey to discovery.

Let’s go, let’s grow! Go grow.

Let us grow, give me your hand.
So much beauty in this Land.
Not just fruits and trees —
opportunities.
Each and every act we do

improves us — we are better Jews.
‫כי אדם עץ השדה‬

Let’s go, let’s grow!
