Hashiveinu Hebrew Wall Art – Lamentations 5:21 Over the Western Wall

"Bring us back to You, O Lord, and we will return; renew our days as of old."

השיבנו ה׳ אליך ונשובה חדש ימינו כקדם

Hashiveinu Hashem eilecha v'nashuvah, chadeish yameinu k'kedem

Lamentations 5:21 is one of the most beloved verses in Jewish prayer – and here it is in its original Hebrew, set in rich gold lettering above a photograph of the ancient stones of the Western Wall (the Kotel), framed by a drawn gold Jerusalem stone arch.

The Meaning of Hashiveinu (Lamentations 5:21) in Hebrew

Lamentations (Eicha) mourns the destruction of Jerusalem – yet it ends with a plea for return and renewal. The verse is so central that when Eicha is read on Tisha B'Av, this line is repeated after the final verse so the book closes on hope rather than grief. It is also sung every week as the Torah is returned to the Ark, and it is part of the Shema Koleinu prayer during Selichot and Yom Kippur.

Placing the verse over the stones of the Kotel – the last remnant of the Temple Mount retaining wall – turns the words into the place they are reaching for.
