The song “New Day Will Rise” touches on one of the most universal and profound themes – the life-giving power of love and hope. The lyrics speak about dealing with loss, separation, and pain, but also about the possibility of overcoming and renewing oneself. The song presents the belief that in every ending, there is a new beginning, that the pain will pass, and love will remain with us. Each verse in the song highlights how hope and love can carry us even in times of darkness and pain.

The inspiration for the song “New Day Will Rise” focuses on the power of love and the renewing hope. The song conveys the idea that even if people part ways, their love remains present in life. The phrase “Even if you say goodbye, you’ll never go away” speaks about a spiritual presence that remains after parting, like colors filling the sky, light that guides us even in difficult times. It is a song of hope, in which the speaker asks to hold onto the light even in times of pain, and at the same time, deals with the question of whether this love will be proud of her choices and the way she decides to live her life, even if she has to part.

The song also deals with accepting the difficulty of life and the process of inner healing. There is a call to those who hear it not to be alone in pain and to remember that “no one cries alone.” The song encourages the listener to believe in the power of love and hope and reminds that with time, every sorrow will fade, and a new day will come. The words “Darkness will fade, all the pain will go by” express the complexity of dealing with loss and pain, but also the expectation for change and renewal.

The verse in French in the song “New Day Will Rise” differs somewhat from the English verses in terms of emotional approach. The English verses emphasize the light that enters our lives even in difficult times, and the love that stays with us even after separation. The French verse, “Et même si tu dis adieu, Tu ne partiras jamais,” focuses more directly on the spiritual presence of the loved one and emphasizes the idea of love that remains even when we part.

The use of French strengthens the romanticism and the sense of the eternal nature of love, in a less practical and more philosophical and emotional way. The French verse adds another layer of emotional depth to the song, connecting the feeling of loss with the power of memory and the love that remains forever. In fact, the words in French are similar to the words in English but have been adapted to the French language.

The song was written and composed by the singer and creator Keren Peles, who also co-wrote the song “Hurricane” performed on the Eurovision 2024 stage by Eden Golan. Tomer Biran is responsible for the arrangement and musical production. The song will be sung in three languages—English, Hebrew, and French.
