Yitzhak Rabin was
a "warrior for his nation's freedom" and a "martyr for
his nation's peace."
[Bill Clinton]
Rabin was "a soldier who died
because he was a man of peace."
[Bob Dole]
"Goodbye, my older brother, prophet of peace. We
shall continue to bear this great peace, near and far, as you sought
during your lifetime, as you charge us with your death."
[Shimon Peres in his eulogy]
"He was a man of courage, a man of vison... As
long as I live, I'll be proud to have known him, as a brother and as a
friend, and as a man, and the relationship of friendship that we had is
something unique and I am proud of that."
[King Hussein of Jordan]

THE
SONG FOR PEACE
Lyrics:
Yaacov Rotblit
Music: Yair Rosenblum
Let the sun rise
And give the morning light,
The purest prayer
Will not bring us back.
He
whose candle was snuffed out
And was buried in the dust,
A bitter cry won't wake him
Won't bring him back.
Nobody
will return us
From the dead dark pit,
Here - neither the victory cheer
Nor songs of praise will help.
So
- sing only a song for peace,
Do not whisper a prayer.
Better sing a song for peace
With a big shout.
Let
the sun penetrate
Through the flowers,
Don't look backward
Leave those who departed.
Lift
your eyes with hope,
Not through the rifle sights.
Sing a song for love,
And not for wars.
Don't
say the day will come,
Bring the day because it is not a dream,
And within all the city's squares,
Cheer only peace.
So
- sing only a song for peace,
Do not whisper a prayer.
Better sing a song for peace,
With a big shout. |
