Ani raiti kama hem halchu
yoter midai mehem lo chazru
chaverim nif'redu, batim nishberu
dmaot shel mishpachot nishpechu
Nitsanim shel anashim, prachim shelo yifrechu
hatikvah berashenu, ahavah benafshenu,
hachalom beruchenu az le'ad namshich bedarkenu.

Ne'elmah la had'mamah, shuv kolot hamilchamah,
od chayal chozer atuf bemah? bedegel hamedinah
dam vedim'ah nisfagim ba'adamah
Od imah hamumah, nisharah lah rak tmunah,
t'tikvah balev noel, im chazak lo nitkapel,
ki lo nolad haben zonah sheya'atsor et yisrael.

Ten li t'tikvah lekabel ma she'ein
et hakoach leshanot ma sheken.

Bo'u namshich hachaim lefaneinu
lo meuchar ki machar yom chadash
hachalom yigava im ne'abed et hatikvah
az hoshitu yad l'ahavah.

Hevtachtem yonah, barakia yesh ayit,

Over teruf yomyomi kdei lisrod,

Ten li t'atikvah lekabel ma she'ein

Elohim, ten li t'atikvah lekabel ma she'ein

I saw how many they went
Too many of them did not return
Friends separated, houses broken,
tears of families spilled

Buds of people flowers that didn't flower
The hope in our heads, the love in our hearts, the dream in our spirits so we continue in our path.

The silence has disappeared for it, again sounds of war
Another soldier returns, wrapped in what? In the flag of the country
Blood and tears absorbed by the land
And another shocked mother is left with just a picture
The hope is locked in the heart, the strong nation will not fold over
Because the son of a bitch that can stop Israel has not been born.

Give me the hope to accept what there isn't
The strength to change what there is.

Come let's continue, our life is in front of us
It's not late because tomorrow is a new day
The dream will perish if we lose the hope
So reach out to love.

You promised a dove, in the sky there's a hawk
Brother, poisonous twig pricks, this is not an olive branch
Living in a dream, everybody talks about peace
But they shoot, oppress, pull, squeeze the trigger
In a world of suicide attacks, the people are still talking
Living in an illusion of righteousness,
they widen the rift in the nation.

Pass madness every day in order to survive
Don't want to live in order to fight,
Sub fights in order to live
Plant hope, sends out roots
Shield in my body for the dream
so it won't be shattered to splinters
Enough, enough with the hurt, enough with the tears
A year that the land bleeds not sleeping and why?

Give me the hope to accept what there isn't
The strength to change what there is.

Come let's continue, our life is in front of us
It's not late because tomorrow is a new day
The dream will perish if we lose the hope
So reach out to love

G-d, give me the hope to accept what there isn't
Give me the courage to try to fix the world.

Come let's continue, our life is in front of us
It's not late because tomorrow is a new day
The dream will perish if we lose the hope
So reach out to love

G-d, give me the hope to accept what there isn't
Give me the strength to change what is
Give me the courage to try to fix the world.

Come let's continue, our life is in front of us
It's not late because tomorrow is a new day
The dream will perish if we lose the hope
So reach out to love.

I'll submit one of my own, by a prayer of Yom Kippur - Day of Atonement
"Lekha Eli" "To you my lord (I desire)"
Written by Rabbi Abraham Ibn-Ezra by Meir Banai with slight modifications.

To you my God is my desire
in you is my pleasure and my love
to you is my heart and my kidneys
to you is my spirit and my soul

Bring me back and I shall return
and thou shalt want my repentance
(x2)

Na na na...

To you I shall shout out, to you I shall stick
until my return to my land
to you I am as long as I live
(except) until after my death

Bring me back...

Oooo...

To you is my hand and foot
and from you is my characteristic
(all of) myself, my blood is for you
and my skin and my nation

Bring me back...
Lecha Eli t'shukati
becha chashki ve'ahavati
lecha libi vekilyotai
lecha ruchi venishmati

Hashiveni ve'ashuvah
vetirtzeh et t'shuvati
(x2)

Na na na...

Lecha ez'ak becha ed'bak
adei shuvi le'admati
lecha ani be'odi chai
ve'af ki acharei moti

Hashiveni...

Oooo...

Lecha yad(a)i lecha ragl(a)i
umimcha hi t'chunati
lecha atzmi lecha dami
ve'ori gam goyati

Hashiveni...

IDF Chief Cantor Sings Mi Sheberach for Soldiers

IDF Chief Cantor releases a Mi Sheberach prayer for IDF soldiers.
By Arutz Sheva North America
First Publish: 8/1/2014, 8:36 PM

The IDF Chief Cantor, Lt. Col. Shai Abramson, has released a new version of the Mi Sheberach prayer for the welfare of the IDF soldiers.

The prayer is sung to the tune of “Eretz Tzvi”, a song originally recorded by famous Israeli singer Yehoram Gaon for the movie Mitvsa Yonatan, an Israeli film from 1977 based on Operation Entebbe, in which Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s brother, Yoni, was killed.

Cantor Lt. Col. Abramson is accompanied by the Pirchey Yisrael children’s choir.

Diaspora Tribute to Israel's Fallen Warriors: A Heroes Song

British Jewish singers compose song to show gratitude for the soldiers who sacrificed their lives during Operation Protective Edge.

One of the remarkable outcomes of the current war between Israel and Gaza-based terrorist groups has been the unprecedented unity within Israeli society, and a sense of solidarity with the IDF's Operation Protective Edge that has crossed the political and religious spectrum.

Rallies, public prayers and countless initiatives by organizations and individuals have been organized to support and pay tribute to the nation's soldiers, 64 of whom have fallen in battle since the operation began 37 days ago.

That sense of solidarity has transcended geographic boundaries as well. Jews in the Diaspora have also been showing a remarkable sense of unity with Israel, holding rallies and prayers of their own and donating generously to aid the embattled residents of southern Israel and the soldiers fighting to protect them.

But a group of British Jewish singers say they wanted to offer something more "from the heart" - and came together to compose a song dedicated to the IDF's fallen.

Called "A Heroes Song", the song is accompanied by a video displaying the faces of each Israeli soldier killed during Operation Protective Edge. It's a tribute to the Israeli army made in the knowledge that its struggle against terrorists sworn to the destruction of the Jewish people is fought not just on behalf of the State of Israel, but Jews everywhere, its makers told Arutz Sheva.

"Everyone is donating money, or food, which is obviously the most important thing to do at this time," said producer Alex Holder. "But we wanted to do something profound which would communicate the heartfelt gratitude of Jews here and elsewhere for the sacrifices these brave soldiers have made for us."

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem,
let my right hand forget her cunning.
Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth,
if I remember thee not;
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem
.

If I set not Jerusalem
above my chiefest joy
Remember Lord, against the children of Edom
the day of Jerusalem.
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem.
Wo say:'Rase it, rase it,
even to the foundation thereof.'
If I set not Jerusalem
above my chiefest joy.
 


מִזְמור לְדָוִד, ה׳ רֹעִי לֹא אֶחְסָר.
בִּנְאוֹת דֶשֶׁא יֵרְבִּיצֵנִי, עַל-מֵי מְנֻחוֹת יְנַהֲלֵנִי.
נַפְשִׁי יְשׁוֹבֵב, יַנְחֵנִי בְמַעְגְלֵי-צֶדֶק לְמֵעֵן שְׁמוֹ.
גַם כִּי-אֵלֵךְ בְּגֵיא צַלְמָוֶת לֹא-אִירָא רָע כִּי-אַתָּה עִמָדִי, שִׁבְטְךָ וּמִשְׁעַנְתֶּךָ הֵמָה יְנַחֲמֻנִי.
תַּעֲרֹךְ לְפָנַי שֻׁלְחָן נֶגֶד צֹרְרָי, דִשַנְתָּ בַשֶמֶן רֹאשִי כּוֹסִי רְוָיָה.
אַךְ, טוֹב וָחֶסֶד יִרְדְפוּנִי כָּל-יְמֵי חַיָי, וְשַׁבְתִּי בְּבֵית-ה׳ לְאֹרֶךְ יָמִים


Translation:
A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures:
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul:
He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Death,
I will fear no evil: for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies:
you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
