composer/group: | Enrico Marcias | title: | Hatikva | category: | Popular | lyrics or other text: | Rhythm unknown! Please edit this melody if you know it! You would need to update the Lilypond source code by adding note durations, rests and maybe bar lines. Durations are specified as numbers after the note name, e. g. c4 for a quarter note c below middle c. A whole rest would, for example, be written as r1. Please delete this text when you are done. Thanks for your help! | Parsons Code: | UUUURUDUUDDRRDRDDUUDDUUUUURUDU |

lyrics or other text: | The (Hebrew) lyrics to this melody still need to be added. As far as I know, this is a Hebrew national song/National Anthem. Who can confirm this? | Version 3 updated on 2010-09-27 by lajcher
composer/group: | Naftali Herz Imber, Samuel Cohen, folk melody | title: | Hatikva - National Anthem of Israel | category: | National anthems | lyrics or other text: | Transliteration
Kol od balevav p'nimah
Nefesh Yehudi homiyah
Ulfa'atey mizrach kadimah
Ayin l'Tzion tzofiyah
Od lo avdah tikvatenu
Hatikvah bat shnot alpayim
L'hiyot am chofshi b'artzenu
Eretz Tzion v'Yerushalayim
translation
As long as deep in the heart,
The soul of a Jew yearns,
And forward to the East
To Zion, an eye looks
Our hope will not be lost,
The hope of two thousand years,
To be a free nation in our land,
The land of Zion and Jerusalem.
Melody appears as a theme in Smetana's "Moldau". Apparently both come from the same Moldavian folksong.
