Kraków’s Remah Cemetery

At the rising sun and at its going down;
We remember them.  
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of

winter;
We remember them.  
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth

of spring;
We remember them.  
At the blueness of the skies and in the

warmth of summer;
We remember them.  
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of the autumn;

We remember them.  
At the beginning of the year and when it

ends;
We remember them.  
As long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us as

We remember them. 
When we are weary and in need of strength; We remember them.  
When we are lost and sick at heart;

We remember them.  
When we have decisions that are difficult to make;

We remember them.  
When we have joy we crave to share;

We remember them.  
When we have achievements that are based on theirs;

We remember them.  
For as long as we live, they too will live, for

they are now a part of us as,
We remember them.
-Sylvan Kamens & Rabbi Jack Riemer
