SHIR HAMACCABIAH

Yoter maher, yoter gavoha,
Yoter yafeh, yoter chazak.
Heitev larutz heitev lifgo'a/liklo'a,
Ulenatze'ach bamis'chak.
Mikol arba ruchot shamaim,
Kulchem shalom, kulchem echai
Alfei brachot, alfei yadaim,
Ve'am yisrael chai!

THE SONG OF THE MACCABIAH

Faster - higher
Nicer - stronger
Well to run - well to hit
And to win the game
From all four winds of the sky
You're all peace, you're all my brothers
A thousand blessings, a thousand hands
And the nation of Israel lives
