Blessed is the match consumed in kindling
flame.
Blessed is the flame that burns in the
secret fastness of the heart.
Blessed is the heart with strength to stop
its beating for honor’s sake.
Blessed is the match consumed in kindling
flame.
-Hannah Senesh
My God, My God, I pray that these things
never end,
The sand and the sea,
The rustle of the waters,
Lightning of the Heavens,
The prayer of Man.
אלי, אלי, שלא יגמר לעולם
החול והים
רישרוש של המים
ברק השמים
תפילת האדם
The voice called, and I went.
I went, because the voice called.
-Hannah Senesh
There are stars whose radiance is visible
on earth
though they have long been extinct.
There are people whose brilliance continues to light the world
though they are no longer among the living.
These lights are particularly bright when the night is dark.
They light the way for mankind. -Hannah Senesh
