Kaddish from Kibbutz Negba & Others
Shalom Samid
Glorified is the name of the man
Sanctified is his life’s achievement and may we remember
His many deeds during the days of his life
And his accomplishments that he did not succeed in completing
About the dreams that were woven – and dissipated
And about the precious gift and also the human weakness
That disappeared in the mists of time
The memory of the individual and the echoes of his life shall shine in the heavens of our hearts
And his name shall be remembered for as long as the sum
Because the memory of a man is permitted over time
His name shall not be covered with darkness
The commandments of continued life shall give relief to our deep pain
Time passing will give mercy
And we shall save the fruits of his life for many days
May he be glorified and sanctified
May his name endure forever and be continued as long as the sun (Psalm 72:17)
