The Song of the Biryonim
(Shir Biryonim)
by Ya'akov Cohen
We have arisen and returned mighty youths,
We have arisen and returned, We are Biryonim!
To redeem our land in war's storm,
We demand our heritage with upraised hand.
In blood and fire Judea fell!
In blood and fire Judea will arise!
War for freedom, War for the land,
And if freedom dies, long live revenge!
If there is no justice in the land, the sword will judge
Even if we fall like sand, we'll not give up our rights.
In blood and fire Judea fell!
In blood and fire Judea will arise!
(Based on a translation in Shiron Betar, U.S. circa 1990)
