Lyrics: Naftali Herz Imber, 1877 Music: Shmuel Cohen, 1887–1888 Adopted: 1948 Official Hebrew lyrics כֹּל עוֹד בַּלֵּבָב פְּנִימָה נֶפֶשׁ יְהוּדִי הוֹמִיָּה, וּלְפַאֲתֵי מִזְרָח קָדִימָה, עַיִן לְצִיּוֹן צוֹפִיָּה; עוֹד לֹא אָבְדָה תִּקְוָתֵנוּ, הַתִּקְוָה בַּת שְׁנוֹת אַלְפַּיִם, 𝄇 לִהְיוֹת עַם חָפְשִׁי בְּאַרְצֵנוּ, אֶרֶץ צִיּוֹן וִירוּשָׁלַיִם.𝄆 English translation: Literal As long as in the heart, within, The Jewish soul yearns, And towards the ends of the east, [The Jewish] eye gazes toward Zion, Our hope is not yet lost, The hope of two thousand years, 𝄆 To be a free nation in our own land, The land of Zion and Jerusalem. 𝄇 Hatikvah (Hebrew: הַתִּקְוָה, romanized: haTīqvā, [hatikˈva]; lit. 'The Hope') is the national anthem of the State of Israel. Part of 19th-century Jewish poetry, the theme of the Romantic composition reflects the 2,000-year-old desire of the Jewish people to return to the Land of Israel in order to reclaim it as a free and sovereign nation-state. The piece's lyrics are adapted from a work by Naftali Herz Imber, a Jewish poet from Złoczów, Austrian Galicia. Imber wrote the first version of the poem in 1877, when he was hosted by a Jewish scholar in Iași, Romania. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatikvah
