Eli, Eli is a popular Israeli folk song composed by Hannah Senesh, a Zionist resistance fighter during World War II.


Eli, Eli (Hebrew lyrics)
Eli, Eli,
She lo yigamer le olam,
Ha chol ve ha yam,
Rishrush shel ha mayim,
Barak bashamayim,
T'filat ha adam.

Translation
Oh Lord, my G-d,
I pray that these things never end,
The sand and the sea,
The rush of the waters,
The crash of the heavens,
The prayer of man.
