Cowardly jackal,
Venomous snake,
May this headlong dive
Be your last mistake.
Did you dip your toe in
To test the waters?
Hope to add to the countless
Innocents’ slaughters?
Hundreds of drones and missiles
Failed to make landfall.
All that bluster and firepower
Achieved nothing at all!
You fiends and the monsters,
You rogues armed and backed,
Will not come out of this outrage
Intact.
Iran’s leaders will soon gasp
Their last hurrah.
Wiped out will be
Hezbollah.
Their legacy: death and suffering
Coming at you, r’sha’im,
The pendulum swing.
It’s time for a lesson
In respect.
Hashem loves His Nation,
He hates you, Amalek!
Once a fairly modern
Industrial land
Till the ayatollah
Wrested command,
When they took US hostages
Strode atop the world stage;
The US should’ve bombed them
Back to the stone age.
The same nations against Israel
Who betray and condemn,
Count on her to do
The world’s dirty work again.
Lions of Israel
Arise,
Let the whole world
Realize,
Few in number,
Small in size,
Still, most beloved
In G-d’s eyes.
Thank you,
HaKadosh Baruch Hu.
Fortunate are we
Who trust in You.
You’ve again left those
Who would harm us.
Confounded,
Your salvation
Leaves the world astounded.
The survival of Israel
Leads the world to proclaim:
Blessed is the Nation
That bares Your Great Name,
As You have many times,
You’ve saved us once more;
Your kindness
Upon Your people
Forever endures.
