Zamir wrote the lyrics and set them to music himself, the song is called 'Prayer'

 

The Prayer/ Music and lyrics: Daniel Zamir

 

(I) (am a pauper), riding a donkey

Trying not to fall into

The castle in the sand

 

Of time that has ended

Of everything that has passed

Of what was, that was

Of what will be tomorrow

 

Will you laugh, will you cry

Will you fall or will you rise

 

Will you leave, will you come

Will you want and hope

 

If you try to always move in the direction of good

If we hold on together and not let go

 

And not surrender to all the evil surrounding us

We will yet see Tel Aviv bloom

 

And then maybe even there in Mea Shearim they will start to untangle the knots

And join the celebration

 

What has happened to me

What did I have

Heal me, save me

Fair and modest one

 

So what will become of us my friends

Who knows until when

When we go back to being together soon

When we reach the end

 

In our land of Zion and Jerusalem
