Hatikvah (Hebrew: הַתִּקְוָה, Hatiq'vah, lit. The Hope) is the naitional anthem o Israel. The anthem wis written bi Naphtali Herz Imber, a secular Galician Jew frae Zolochiv (today in Lviv Oblast), who moved tae the Land o Israel in the early 1880s.
The anthem's theme revolves aroond the nearly 2000-year-auld hope o the Jewish fowk tae be a free an sovereign fowk in the Land o Israel, a naitional dream that wad eventually be realized wi the foondin o the modren State o Israel in 1948.

Kol ‘od balleivav penimah | Sae lang as in the hert, 'ithin, |
Nefesh yehudi homiyah, | A Jewish saul still glaggers, |
Ul(e)fa’atei mizrach kadimah, | An forrit, tae the droddums o the east, |
‘Ayin letziyon tzofiyah; | A ee still gaups forrit Israel; |
‘Od lo avdah tikvateinu, | Oor howp is nocht yet lost, |
Hatikvah bat shnot alpayim, | The howp o twa thoosand towmonds, |
Lihyot ‘am chofshi be’artzeinu, | Tae be a lowse fowk in oor kintra, |
Eretz-tziyon (v)'Y(e)rushalayim. | The kinta o Israel an Jerusalem. |
