There is a flower that has blossomed surrounded by sand thorns and rocks

Thousands of years has taught to be strong like an ox

Even though nations of the world don’t believe we have rights

We do, Az Israel kadima lo levater (Israel go foward don’t give up)

No one can tell us we can’t be free

What peaceful neighbor wants to take our land and push us in the sea

No matter what we do we are hated even now

We are not the worlds sacrificial cow or wolf on the prowl

We will defend ourselves when a rock or rocket is thrown at our head

It is our blood that is shed

Sirens go off like warning shots fired

The gun goes pow pow ra-ta ta taw

We must live with this shock somehow

Of course to the media our enemies will always bow

Soldiers give up their lives suffering dreadful deaths

Civilians live moment by moment breath by breath

Young old stabbed shot blown to pieces before

They had a chance to pull out their gun or find a place to run

We have been to the funerals and felt the country cry with it own reason

Why did another child die

It seems no one cares We do

No more slaughtered Jews!

Silence is no longer an option

So watch and listen see and hear the words

NEVER AGAIN!

In the air sea and ground

Our heads up proud and we wonít back down

Leaders in the past were fooled by the rest of the world and made treaties that didn’t last .

Everybody wants the piece of the cake: Eretz Yisrael

Have we forgot that the cake was a gift given to us?

How can anyone tell us not to fuss or feel shame for giving our enemies territorial gain

And selling Israel down the drain

Majority of Israelim know they’ll always be a mad man like Saddam Hussein

With a different name.

Every Jew wants a real peace not a lie

Our enemies will not take our land our water our lives

Does not matter who their leaders are we will survive

Golan, Yehuda, Shomron, The world says give more

This would be as disastrous as what happened at the Jersey shore

We already gone to far

Where did we go wrong

Nothing has come through

So what else can we do? NU!

Maspik! Yehudim (Enough! Jews)

Helonim veh Datim (Secular and Religous)

Kumu tiftahu et haaynaim (Wake up open your eyes)

Hamilchama he lo beneinu he neged haoyvim (War is not between us but with our enemies)

Az tafsiku milhemmet achim (stop the fight between brothers )

We believe in G-d’s  hand

Zahal is our high and mighty Army of society

Which carries out Hashem’s plan to protect our homeland

Jerusalem is our capitol

Even the Christian Right understand that Torah and Israel have all been planned .

Yerushalayim and the Temple Mount will remain not just in our heart and soul but in our hands forever embraced

Hashem’s holiness and the Jewish people can never be erased!

Dedicated to everyone who ever defended and continues to defend the land of Israel.

In Memory of those who fell and the victims of  terror

May Hashem comfort you with the mourners of Zion and Yerushalayim.
