      Tomorrow

מחר by Naomi Shemer

"Machar," in spite of gray and gloomy skies
Tomorrow will be clear and bright.
"Machar," we have a hope that never dies
That dawn will soon replace the night.
Refrain:
Sing ,for tomorrow is another day
Dream a dream that's free of care and sorrow.
When it's dark
Let your heart lead the way
And "machar" will be
A bright tomorrow.
"Machar," we'll see the lion and the lamb
And they will teach us right from wrong.
"Machar," along a battle-weary land
In time we'll hear a peaceful song.
"Machar," we'll put away our uniforms
And warriors will all join hands.
"Machar," will be a brighter time I know
With faith we'll build a better land.


Keep an Eye
על הדבש ועל העוקץ
by Naomi Shemer

Keep an eye, O G-d, forever,
On the honey, on the sting
Of the good and bad together
Let me always sing
Please keep watch, O G-d, forever
Over all the promised land,
All my sons bring home together
From the faraway land.
All these precious things forever
Please preserve, O G-d, please do! ..... x 2
All the good and bad together
Honey sweet and bitter too.
