Hatikva/ Naftali Herz Imber
In the Jewish heart
A Jewish spirit still sings,
And the eyes look east
Toward Zion
Our hope is not lost,
Our hope of two thousand years,
To be a free nation in our land,
In the land of Zion and Jerusalem
We tend to forget that the most famous song in the history of Israeli music is the national anthem, Hatikava (in Hebrew: Hope). This week as the country prepares to remember its fallen soldiers and celebrate its independence, we invite you to listen to leading Israeli artists perform special renditions of the anthem specially recorded for Ynet.
