Agam Berger, the hostage who was free today (Thursday) was a violinist at her high school in Holon.

Kann News reports that in a show of support for the then-still captive Agam, another student in her school wrote and composed a song - Lake of Memories - (a reference to her name Agam, meaning lake in Hebrew).

The clip below included the participation of Agam's twin sister and her close friends.

Here are the lyrics to the song in translation:

Lake of Memories Lyrics and melody: Lior Paz Musical arrangement and production: Gal Shalev

And if there's no sun in the sky

Then what will tomorrow bring

A day has passed, and two days too

And nothing here remains

Since contact with you was cut off

That black Saturday

Praying for some message

For you to return

And if we could only know

How and what you're feeling

In a lake of memories I'm drowning

If only we could hear your voice again

The violins have long gone silent

And there's no one left to play

And your uniform in the room

The tears have soaked into them

And if we could only know

How and what you're feeling

In a lake of memories I'm drowning

If only we could hear your voice again soon

If only we could hear

The rain is dripping again

And another season has passed

And you're still not home

19 years old, still a child

And if we could only know

How and what you're feeling

In a lake of memories I'm drowning

If only we could hear your voice again soon

Every second, every minute matters

Agam Berger has been released from Hamas captivity to IDF custody via the Red Cross and is now heading to a waystation near Kibbutz Re'im for an initial medical examination.
