Don’t judge a book by its cover….the cover doesn’t tell you what’s inside
To know what’s inside you gotta open it, and read it with your very own eyes.
Well the cover might be fancy, the cover might be plain,
Doesn’t tell you nothin’, you know what I’m sayin’?
Al Tistakel bakankan, ele b’mah she’yesh bo, mah she’b’chutz lo misaper, et mah she’yesh b’tocho
אל תסתכל נקנקן, אלא במה שיש בו. מה שבחוץ לא מספר, את מה שיש בתוכו.
No matter what the cover the inside might be fine, good for your soul, good for your mind!
Don’t judge a book by its cover….the cover doesn’t tell you what’s inside
To know what’s inside you gotta open it, and read it with your very own eyes.
People are like books, you don’t know who they are, ‘til you listen with your ears and see with your heart
Al Tistakel bakankan, ele b’mah she’yesh bo, mah she’b’chutz lo misaper, et mah she’yesh b’tocho
אל תסתכל נקנקן, אלא במה שיש בו. מה שבחוץ לא מספר, את מה שיש בתוכו.
Clothes and hair and skin won’t tell you what they’re like,
When you look past those things, you’ll find a special sight…
Don’t judge a book by its cover….the cover doesn’t tell you what’s inside
To know what’s inside you gotta open it, and read it with your very own eyes.
Al Tistakel bakankan, ele b’mah she’yesh bo, mah she’b’chutz lo misaper, et mah she’yesh b’tocho
אל תסתכל נקנקן, אלא במה שיש בו. מה שבחוץ לא מספר, את מה שיש בתוכו.
Don’t judge a book by its cover….the cover doesn’t tell you what’s inside
To know what’s inside you gotta open it, and read it with your very own eyes.
Read it with your very own eyes, let’s read it with our very own eyes.
