He who's candle was snuffed out
and was buried in the dust
bitter cry wont wake him up
and wont bring him back

Nobody will bring us back
from a dead and darkened pit
here, neither the victory cheer
nor songs of praise will help

just sing a song for peace
do not whisper a prayer
Just sing a song for peace
in a loud shout

Allow the sun to penetrate
through the flowers
don't look back
let go of those departed

Lift your eyes with hope
not through the rifles' sights
sing a song for love
and not for wars

Don't say the day will come
bring on that day
because it is not a dream
and in all the city squares
cheer for PEACE

Tnu lashemesh la'alot
laboker le'ha'ir
hazaka shebatfilot
otanu lo tahzir

Mi asher kava nero
oo'Ve'Afar nitman
Bechi mar lo ya'iro
lo yahziro le'chan

Ish otanu lo yashiv
mibor tachtit a'fel
kan lo yo'ilu
lo shirei hanitzahon
Velo shirei hallel

Lachen rak shiru, shir lashalom
al tilhashu tfila
lachen rak shiru, shir lashalom
bitze'aka gdola

tnu lashemesh lahador
miba'ad laprahim
al tabitu le'achor
hanichu la'holchim

s'oo eina'yim betikva
lo derech kavanot
shiru shir la'ahava
velo lamilhamot

al tagidu yom yavo
havi'oo et hayom
ki lo halom hoo
oove'kol hakikarot
hari'oo lashalom
