The up-beat, optimistic song inspires people to unite together to express their gratitude for everything in life through song. Israel&#8217;s victory in Jerusalem marked the fourth time in which the host country won the contest. However, Israel neither hosted or participated in the 1980 contest, which took play on Yom Hazikaron, Israel&#8217;s memorial day for fallen soldiers and victims of terror. Considered a Eurovision classic, the song was performed at the close of the 1999 contest by all of the participants as a tribute to the victims of the wars in the Balkans. At the request of the Israeli Ministry of Culture &amp; Sports, <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/0rGsPbuteVY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an updated version of the song by Gali Atari and Eden Ben Zaken<\/a> was performed at the official state ceremony in Jerusalem for Yom Ha&#8217;atzmaut in 2018, celebrating Israel&#8217;s 70th birthday. It has\u00a0<\/em><em>also become a modern Jewish standard, familiar to Jews around the world. The lyrics of the chorus in Hebrew and the complete <\/em><em>English lyrics are provided below.
