[HANASHIR:15375] Re: Lu Y'hi English verse

[Francine Berg <songberg...>]

Rachel,
  I have an english verse written  in the arrangement by I.R. Meisels.

If from the dark of night about us there shines forth a blesses star,
     then may all our prayers come to be.
May peace abide within our landand strengthen all thosenear and far,
     may it come to pass, may it be.
Lu y'hi lu y'hi oh may it be,
peace within our land we'll yet see.
Lu y'hi Lu y'hi we all pray let it be,
all that we desire, may it be.

I like this version about "peace", and hope this is what you are looking 
for.  Have a peaceful, healthy New Year.   shalom   Francine Berg
