CÂNTECUL PARTIZANILOR EVREI DIN VILNA
Nu spune că te afli azi pe cel din urmă drum
Albastra şi o ‘năbuşă un cer de plumb acum.
Doritul nostru ceas o să răsară într’o zi
Şi’n marş de tobe vom cânta atunci: – “Suntem aci!”
Din ţara de curmalt şi până’n ţara cu zăpezi,
Suntem aci cu chinul şi cu jalea drept dovezi
Şi orişiunde-un strop de sânge-al nostru a căzut,
Va creşte forţa noastră şi curajul nostru mut.
Cu soare se va polei acest “azi” de dureri
Şi odată cu duşmanii va pieri al nostri “eri”
Iar dacă soarele va ‘ntârzia în zori de leac
Parolă vie, – cântul va păşi din veac-în veac.
Cu plumb şi sânge cântecul acesta este scris,
Nu-i cânt de păsărică liberă în sbor deschis,
Ci ‘n prăvăliri de ziduri, duduid asurzitor,
Cu revolverele în mâini îl cântă un popor.
Nu spune că te afli azi pe cel din urmă drum
Albastra şi o ‘năbuşă un cer de plumb acum.
Doritul nostru ceas o să răsară într’o zi
Şi’n marş de tobe vom cânta atunci: – “Suntem aci!”
As part of World ORT‘s support of Eli Rabinowitz’s initiative to introduce the song to new generations, students at ORT schools around the world are this year making videos of the poem and the song.
Kishinev ORT Herzl Technology Lyceum
Secondary School # 22 opened in 1991 and benefited from the opening in 2000 of an ORT ICT centre, consisting of a technology laboratory, a resource centre, a network centre and a media centre. The school is currently operated jointly by the state of Moldova and ORT, and is now known as ORT Technology Lyceum.
In 2015 Kishinev ORT Technology Lyceum moved to a new building which had been completely renovated and reequipped. This allowed for more students to join the school as well as the addition of catering, leisure and sports facilities.
