[Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena (English version):] Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Can't you hear the music playing In the city square? Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Tzena, Come where all our friends will find us With the dancers there. Tzena, Tzena! Join the celebration. There'll be people there from every nation. Dawn will find us laughing in the sunlight, Dancing in the city square. Tzena, Tzena, (CLAP), Come and dance the hora. Dance the dabkeh. All of us will dance together. Tzena, Tzena, (CLAP), When the band is playing, My heart's saying, "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena!"
