The English transliteration of the Hebrew is: BA-RUCH A-TA A-DO-SHEM E-LO-HAY-NU ME-LECH HA-O-LAM A-SHER KI-D'SHA-NU B'MITZ-VO-TAV V-TZI-VA-NU L'HI-TA-TAYF BA-TZI-TZIT.

This translates to: Blessed are You, Lord our God, Ruler of the universe, who makes us holy with commandments, and has commanded us to wrap ourselves in the tzitzit [prayer shawl].

Hope this helps!

Of course, as the blessing indicates, it should only be said by one who is actually obligated to wear it, namely a jewish male.

Don't you mean the tefilin?
