WhatsappNova Festival survivor Yuval Raphael sang Israel’s Eurovision song at the 2025 competition. It’s amazing that Shulem Lemmer covered it!
Israel’s Eurovision Song
Shulem Lemmer is definitely one of the most unique Orthodox singers out there. He did a beautiful cover of Israel’s Eurovision song, “New Day Will Rise.” His voice is angelic. You can tell that Lemmer puts his soul into what he does.
It’s powerful. And the lyrics to this song are beyond meaningful.
Lyrics:
And even if you say goodbye, you’ll never go away
You are the rainbow in my sky, my colors in the grey
My only wish upon a star, sunshine in the day
The only song that my piano ever plays.
And even if you say goodbye, you’ll always be around
To lift me up and take me high, keep my feet close to the ground
Are you proud of me tonight? Dreams are comin’ true
I choose the light, nothin’ to lose if I lose you.
New day will rise, life will go on
Everyone cries, don’t cry alone
Darkness will fade, all the pain will go by
But wе will stay, even if you say goodbye.
Et mêmе si tu dis adieu, tu ne partiras jamais
T’es l’arc-en-ciel de mon ciel bleu, mes couleurs dans le gris
Et mon seul souhait sous un ciel d’art, un rayon dans ma journée
La seule chanson que mon piano peut jouer.
New day will rise, life will go on
Everyone cries, don’t cry alone
Darkness will fade, all the pain will go by
But we will stay, even if you say—
New day will rise, life will go on
Everyone cries, don’t cry alone
Darkness will fade, all the pain will go by
But you will stay, love of my life.
מים רבים לא יכבו
את האהבה, ונהרות לא ישטפוה
(Chorus again)
