The songwriter Dorit Tzameret, a resident of Kibbutz Beit Hachita, passed away at the age of 80. Tzameret wrote the words to several songs that were composed.
His most famous song is "The Wheat Grows Again" to the tune of Haim Barkani, performed by the Hagabetron, Chava Elberstein, Jordana Arzi, Rochama Raz and Dodo Zakai.
Tzemert lost her husband Nissan Arenberg about three years ago.
She is survived by four children and nine grandchildren.
She is the mother of Noa Arenberg, an Israeli screenwriter and creator.
Zameret also wrote the lyrics of the song "It's just words" to the tune and performance of Yehezkel Dori, the song "There's something to count" composed by Dan Peled and the song "Love Stories" composed by Yehezkel Dori.
In addition, she wrote the lyrics of the song "And all this is over and they will not be paid" to the tune of Nachum Hyman, performed by C. Hyman.
The song was written in memory of Yotam Lotan, a member of Beit Al-Hasita, who was killed in the Second Lebanon War.
"The Wheat Grows Again" was written in 1974 by Tzemeret following the heavy grief that gripped Kibbutz Beit HaSheta with the death of 11 of its sons in the Yom Kippur War.
This song is one of the songs most identified with the songs of the Day of Remembrance for the martyrs of the Israeli system.
The song was first made famous by Ilan Gilboa's arrangement and performed by the Hagabetron band.
In 1983, Chava Elberstein recorded it.
