Hof un Gloib
| Hof! Nisht vayt iz shoyn der friling. | Hope! The spring won’t lag much longer; |
| Es veln shmeterlingen shpringen. | Butterflies will come in throngs! |
| Naye nestn, naye foygl | There’ll be new nests on the branches, |
| Veln naye lider zingen! | And new birds will song new songs. |
| 2x and at end |
Anthony starts til riseLift every voice and sing, Till earth and heaven ring, Ring with the harmonies of Liberty; Let our rejoicingrise High as the list’ning skies, Let it resound loud as the rolling sea. Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us; Facing the rising sun of our new day begun, Let us march on till victory is won.
hmmm til beat Stony the road we trod, Bitter the chast’ning rod, Felt in the days when hope unborn had died; Yet with a steady beat, Have not our weary feet Come to the place for which our fathers sighed? We have come over a way that with tears has been watered. We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered, Out from the gloomy past, Till now we stand at last Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.
Hof againGod of our weary years, God of our silent tears, Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way; Thou who hast by Thy might, Led us into the light, Keep us forever in the path, we pray. Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee, Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee; Shadowed beneath Thy hand, May we forever stand, True to our God, True to our native land.
Hope! The spring won’t lag much longer; Butterflies will come in throngs! There’ll be new nests on the branches, And new birds will song new songs. Trust that night will soon be over And the clouds will vanish too; Blue once more will be the heavens; Stars and suns – all fresh, all new! Spring’s sweet breath will rouse new roses; Flowers will shoot up bright and brave; There’ll be shining, singing, fragrance Everywhere! And – on our grave. Hope! The spring won’t lag much longer; Butterflies will come in throngs! There’ll be new nests on the branches, And new birds will song new songs. translated by Aaron Kramer
Hof! Nisht vayt iz shoyn der friling. Es veln shmeterlingen shpringen. Naye nestn, naye foygl Veln naye lider zingen! Gloyb: Di nakht iz shoyn farshvundn, In di volkns oykh tserunen. Bloy vet zayn der himl, Naye shtern, naye zunen. Naye royzn, naye blumen Veln blien, vaksn hoykh. Es vet shaynen, shmekn, zingen, Un in unzer vinkl oykh! Hof! Nisht vayt iz shoyn der friling. Es veln shmeterlingen shpringen. Naye nestn, naye foygl Veln naye lider zingen!
