Daniel Kahn & The Painted Bird
Ikh Heyb Oyf Mayn Hand Un Ikh Shver / The Hope
Ikh heyb oyf mayn hand un ikh shver
In goles tsu blaybn nisht mer
Dos Land tsu bafrayen, mit blut tsu banayen
Ikh heyb oyf mayn hand un ikh shver
Dos Land tsu bafrayen, mit blut tsu banayen
Ikh heyb oyf mayn hand un ikh shver

Vos teygn tsu betn ba England?

Dan veln mir hobn dos Land
Nor mit gever oyfton veln mir mer
Dan veln mir hobn dos Land

Eybik veln mir blaybn tsu shand
Eyb mir veln nisht hobn kayn Land
Nor eyb mir veln geyen in Zhabotinskis reyen
Dan veln mir hobn dos Land
Nor eyb mir veln geyen in Zhabotinskis reyen
Dan veln mir hobn dos Land

As long as deep within the heart
The soul of Judea is turbulent and strong
As long as to the east, forwardly
The eye toward Zion constantly is turned
Then our hope it is not dead
The ancient longing will be fulfilled
To return to the Land, the land of our fathers
The city of Jerusalem where David encamped
To return to the Land, the land of our fathers
The city of Jerusalem where David encamped
