So long as still within our breasts
The jewish heart beats true,
So long as still towards the east,
To zion, looks the jew,
So long our hopes are not yet lost
Two thousand years we cherished them
To live in freedom in the land
Of zion and jerusalem. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/barbra_streisand/hatikvah_from_the_stars_salute_israel_at_30_feat_golda_meir.html ]
