In Humility and Pride
Lyrics: Adapted from the words of Menachem Begin
Music: Amir Benayoun
Direction and production: Ariel Brener Sand Animation: Olga Goltzer
Produced by the Menachem Begin Heritage Center
in honor of Menachem Begin's Centennial Year
The beauty of life, a mother's love
the innocent smile of a child
brotherly love, a father's joy
these were his dreams
the spreading of the truth the pursuit of peace
the sweet victory of justice
the sanctity of life
the eternal people's dream being fulfilled every day
here in the land of Israel, the land of Zion
I stand before you, in humility and pride
a Jew who loves and dreams
"Ashkenazi? Iraqi? Jews! Brothers! Fighters!"
together we will live in the holy land
and together we will sing today
and this song continues in our hearts
and will be sung until the end
here in the land of Israel, the land of Zion
I stand before you, in humility and pride
a Jew who loves and dreams
"We are all together, against pressures, against enemies,
for the sake of our people, for our land
for our children's future in the land of Israel for generations to come"
here in the land of Israel, the land of Zion
here Menachem lived, in humility and pride
a Jew who loved you all
