Black Jew in Israel

At last, I have a country all my own,
A life-long stranger in foreign lands,
I am finally at home,
Neither isolated nor alone,
With my brethren, white,
Black, yellow or brown,
Coming from the entire globe,
Wandering over 2000 years,
Taking to Israel their road,
Joining its culture and civilization,
Growing from 100.000 into
A seven million nation,
And our Arab brothers,
With our common father, Abraham,
Will soon realize they are not - others,
With Arab oil and Jewish intellect
We can build a Middle East
Which deserves respect,
We are already in science, art and culture
One of the most modern nations
With a powerful army
And great trade relations,
Our technologies, science and computer
Projects are some of the very best,
Highly competitive with all the rest
And most of the nations - close and far
Respect our land and the Jewish Star.
