MI Y'MALEIL

Music and lyrics from folk tradition with English lyrics by Judith K. Eisenstein

Mi y'maleil g'vurot Yisrael,

Otan mi yimneh?

Hen b'chol dor yakum hagibor,

Go-el ha-am.

  

Sh'ma! Bayamim hahem bazman hazeh,

Makabi moshiah u'fodeh,

Uv'yamenu kol am Yisrael,

Yit'ached, yakum l’higa-el. 

Who can retell the things that befell us,

Who can count them?

In every age a hero or sage,

Came to our aid.  

  

Shema! In days of yore in Israel's ancient land,

Brave Maccabeus led the faithful band.

And now all Israel must as one arise,

Redeem itself through deed and sacrifice.
