These are songs we sang on the trip. I can't place Hebrew here so I have

Eili, Eili
Shelo yigamer l'alom
Hachol v'hayam
Rishrush shel hamayim

I pray that these things never end
The sand and the sea
The rush of the water
The crash of the heavens
The prayer of the heart. |

And as long as Jewish eyes look eastwards,
Then our two thousand year hope
To be a free nation in Zion
Is not lost. |

But the main things is not to fear

To live as free people in our land
In the Land of Zion and Jerusalem.
