Written October 1976
Long live Israel, he cried in pain
No longer a man, just a Jew
While the world looked on in pain
They shot him once and then again
With a hate that would never be through
Long live Israel, he cried in vain.
Like cattle they herded the "chosen" men
The elite of Israeli youth
While the world looked on in vain
And in the midst of Olympic games
Time passed and the tension grew
Long live Israel, he cried in pain
German guilt grew deeper then
In a land where their fathers killed, too
While the world looked on in vain
The killers would strike again and again
From murder in Munich to bombs in Beirut
Long live Israel, he cried in pain
While the world looked on in vain
