Hebrew
לְשֵׁם יִחוּד קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּהּ בִּדְחִילוּ וּרְחִימוּ, לְיַחֵד שֵׁם י״ה בְּו״ה
בְּיִחוּדָא שְׁלִים בְּשֵׁם כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל:
הֲרֵינִי מִתְעַטֵּף בְּצִיצִית. כֵּן תִּתְעַטֵּף נִשְׁמָתִי וְרַמ״ח אֵבָרַי וְשַׁס״ה גִּידַי בְּאוֹר הַצִּיצִית
הָעוֹלֶה תרי״ג. וּכְשֵׁם שֶׁאֲנִי מִתְכַּסֶּה בְּטַלִּית בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה, כָּךְ אֶזְכֶּה לַחֲלוּקָא
דְּרַבָּנָן וּלְטַלִּית נָאֶה לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא בְּגַן עֵדֶן. וְעַל יְדֵי מִצְוַת צִיצִית תִּנָּצֵל נַפְשִׁי וְרוּחִי
וְנִשְׁמָתִי וּתְפִלָּתִי מִן הַחִיצוֹנִים. וְהַטַּלִּית תִּפְרֹשׂ כְּנָפֶיהָ עֲלֵיהֶם וְתַצִּילֵם, כְּנֶשֶׁר יָעִיר
קִנּוֹ עַל־גּוֹזָלָיו יְרַחֵף: וּתְהֵא חֲשֻׁבָה מִצְוַת צִיצִית לְפָנֵי הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, כְּאִלּוּ
קִיַּמְתִּיהָ בְּכָל פְּרָטֶיהָ וְדִקְדּוּקֶיהָ וְכַוָּנוֹתֶיהָ וְתַרְיַ״ג מִצְוֹת הַתְּלוּיוֹת בָּהּ, אָמֵן סֶלָה.

Leshem yichud kudsha berich hu ushechinteh bidchilu urechimu, leyached sheim Yod-Heh be-Vav-Heh
Beyichuda shelim beshem kol Yisrael:
Hareini mitatef betzitzit. Kein titatef nishmati veramach eivarai veshasah gidai be'or hatzitzit
Ha'oleh taryag. Ucheshem she'ani mitkaseh betallit ba'olam hazeh, kach ezkeh lachaluka
Derabbanan uletallit na'eh la'olam haba began Eden. Ve'al yedei mitzvat tzitzit tinatzel nafshi veruchi
Venishmati utefilati min hachitzonim. Vehatallit tifros kenafeihah aleihem vetatzilem, kenesher ya'ir
Kino al-gozalav yerachef: utehe chashuvah mitzvat tzitzit lifnei hakadosh baruch hu, ke'ilu
Kiyamtihah bechol peratehah vedikdukehah vechavanotehah vetaryag mitzvot hateluyot bah, amen selah.

For the sake of the unification of the Holy One, blessed be He, and His Divine Presence, in reverence and love, to unify the name Yod-Heh with Vav-Heh in perfect unity in the name of all Israel. I am about to wrap myself in this tasseled garment (tallit). So may my soul, my 248 limbs and 365 sinews be wrapped in the light of the tassel (hatzitzit) which amounts to 613 [commandments]. And just as I cover myself with a tasseled garment in this world, so may I be worthy of rabbinical dress and a fine garment in the World to Come in the Garden of Eden. Through the commandment of tassels may my life's breath, spirit, soul and prayer be delivered from external impediments, and may the tallit spread its wings over them like an eagle stirring up its nest, hovering over its young. May the commandment of the tasseled garment be considered before the Holy One, blessed be He, as if I had fulfilled it in all its specifics, details and intentions, as well as the 613 commandments dependent on it, Amen, Selah.
