The opening as it read in 2025
Am Yisrael Chai ( Hebrew : עַם יִשְׂרָאֵל חַי , pronounced [am jisʁaˈʔel χaj] ; lit. ' The People of Israel Live ' ) is a slogan of solidarity among Jews . It is used to express strength and unity, typically in the face of adversity, but also in moments of peace and prosperity. To this end, it has historically featured in Jewish music , literature , art , and politics . The phrase gained popular use as the solidarity anthem of the United States movement Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry in the 1960s and 1970s. According to The Forward , the slogan ranks second as an "anthem of the Jewish people" behind only Hatikvah , the national anthem of the State of Israel .
