She is weeping, Rachel’s weeping for her children

She refuses, she refuses to be comforted

She is weeping, Rachel’s weeping for her children 

because they are no more

​

We remember, we remember all that we have lost

By the waters, by the waters of that Babylon

We remember, we remember all that we have lost

There we sat down and wept

​

O my God, how? O my God, how is it possible

All day long, we, all day long we face a brutal world.

O my God, how? O my God, how is it possible?

Why do you hide your face?

​

What have we done? What have we done to our siblings

Hear their blood cry, hear their blood cry from the blessed earth

What have we done? What have we done to our siblings?

O God, have mercy on us
