Born in Nikolaev in 1902 Raised by his parents who already knew Heaven sent was this son Special his role And all of man would rejoice With his precious soul A heart so young and tender Extraordinary mind Although still a child he envisioned a time When his people are no longer oppressed When we would all thank G-d For every hardship and test The sun has not set See it's light and don't forget His vision and his dream So much closer than it seems Open your eyes, see beyond the disguise One single deed is all we need A daughter of royalty his partner his queen Modestly, graciously devoted to him For everything he stood for For his every cause A woman of valor, of virtue she was From the fires of Europe To freedom they sailed Where nothing is sacred, and all is for sale Timeless traditions, the Jewish way Have no place in America Is what they tried to say The it sun has not set See it's light and don't forget His vision and his dream So much closer than it seems Open your eyes, see beyond the disguise One single deed is all we need The media declared Judaism's end But on the gold paved streets He could see a new trend He slowly built an army Of soldiers who would fight To find that spirit And help it to ignite No time to rest so many to bless His voice just didn't cease To look for a way, to bring on the day When the whole world's at peace Then suddenly still was His voice as he prayed And though we miss it until this day It will never fade The it sun has not set See it's light and don't forget His vision and his dream So much closer than it seems Open your eyes, see beyond the disguise One single deed is all we need
