הבט


Habeit Mishamayim U'Reeh Ki Hayinu L'Ag VaKeles BaGoyim

Nechshavnu KeTzon LeTevach Yuval
Laharog U'LeAbed U'LeMaka U'LeCheirpah

U'VChol Zot Shimcha Lo Shachachnu Na Al Tishcacheinu
הבט משמים וראה כי היינו לעג וקלס בגוים

נחשבנו כצאן לטבח יובל
להרג ולאבד ולמכה ולחרפה

ובכל זאת שמך לא שכחנו נא אל תשכחנו

Translation:

Gaze upon us from Heaven and see,
Behold we are mocked and scorned among nations
We are thought of as sheep to slaughter for tribute
To kill and destroy and erase and to shame
But throughout out all this, we did not forget your name; please do not forget us.
