Itzik, you are right that Hatikvah has some problems. Fortunately, I have corrected them, as below, so it is now 100% kosher:
Kol od balevav pnimah
Nefesh yehudi homiyah
Ulfaatei mizrach kadimah
Ayin ltzion tzofiah
Od lo avdah tikvateinu
Hatikvah bat shnot alpayim
Lihyot meshubadim
Tachat habavliim
Tachat haromaim
Vtachat hayishmealim. (Sing last lines with great feeling.)
