Need song specifically about Auschwitz



My congregation observes Yom Hashoah every year with a program that includes
a speaker and some songs, always including Zog nit Keynmol and Ani Maamin,
plus others that are selected each year to match a specific theme.  This year
we are looking for at least one song that relates specifically to Auschwitz
itself.  We have looked in several sources and have found almost nothing,
with the possible exception of Tsen Brider.  Most of the commonly-performed
songs are either from Vilna, Warsaw, or Kracow, or are associated with other
camps (last year we used the heartbreaking Treblinka song, for example).

I'd like recommendations for what we might use this year, as well as
information about availability of the music.

I'd prefer direct responses, but will be happy to summarize for the group.

Please send suggestions to delatizky (at) bbn(dot)com(dot)
