יעקב שוואקי - שמע ישראל
Composer: אייבי רוטנברג
| He raised his hand to wave goodbye |
| Saw the pain in mother's eyes |
| Who left her little precious boy of four |
| In a citadel of ashen stone |
| That preached a faith unlike his own |
| Perhaps he just may yet survive this war |
| In the shadows stood a man in black |
| My child he said, you must not look back |
| Yet one image lingered, the tears on her face |
| And mother's words from their last embrace |
| "Shema, Shema Israel" |
| Know that there is but one God above |
| When you feel pain, when you rejoice |
| Know how he longs to hear your voice |
| "Hashem Helokenu Hashem Ehad" |
