 נָעַלְתִּי נַעַלַי

 

נָעַלְתִּי נַעַלֵי,

קַמְתִּי וְעָמַדְתִּי, לִפְנֵיכֶם נִצַּבְתִּי:

 פָנָי עָטוּ  דִּיצָה,

בָּרָק קֶסֶם מָלְאוּ עֵינָי:

מָה נָאִיתִי!  כֹּל דְּבָרַי יִּהְיוּ לָכֶם עֹנֶג,

מִדְבְּרוֹתַי רַק פִּרְחֵי הַנָּאָה. 

 

זֶהוּ לְחָשׁ אכדי עַתִּיק.  יֵשׁ לְאוֹמְרוֹ שֶׁלָּשׁ פְּעָמִים עֵת אָדָם נוֹעֵל אֶת נַעַלַיו, כָּךְ שֶׁבַּאֲשֶׁר הוּא יִפְנֶה בְּנֵי אָדָם יִשְׂמְחוּ לִרְאוֹתוֹ.

I'VE PUT MY SHOES ON MY FEET

This spell is to be said three times over a person's shoes when he puts them on, so that, wherever he goes, people will be glad to see him.

I've put my shoes on my feet.

 I've taken my place before you.

My laughter is the flowering of my features,

 The winsome charm of my eyes.

I'm a treat; whatever I say to you will be amusing.

(I)

כְּשִׁפְרָה וּפוּעָה

 

רוּץ אֵלַי כָּאַיָּלָה

 הַחֲלֵק אֵלַי כְּנָחָשׁ קָטָן, זָרִיז!

 אֲנִי אַסַלּוּהִי, הַמְּיַלֶּדֶת,

 (בְּעִבְרִית: שִׁפְרָה וּפוּעָה),

הִנֵּה  לִקְרָאתְךָ זְרוֹעוֹתַי פְּתוּחוֹת!

 

 

Run hither to me!!

 

This little spell addresses  the baby about to be born

 

Run hither to me like a gazelle,

Slip out to me like a little snake!

I Asalluhi, am the midwife,

I will receive you!!

(Foster. P. 1008)
