No quarrels between right and left, between secular
and religious

All differences - erased. The ethnic gap for a
moment ceases.

Two minutes of communion

Two entire moments of union

Two minutes of silence, to commemorate, to
remember.

Two minutes of embracing great fortitude and power.

But a reverberating blast is what we really miss

Announcing two minutes of unifying bliss

A joy to bursts out from deep within our souls

A joy to wipe out all pain and to connect us all.

And how we really miss both on Shabbat and
holidays

Two minutes of tradition and of customs on these
days

And another two minutes of unity on ordinary days

Then shall Independence be celebrated all the way
