The song "Seu Ziona Nes va'Degel", from the early Zionist songs, was written in the wake of the Zionist congresses and was one of the songs that accompanied the Zionist movement in its infancy. The song includes six stanzas calling on the Jews of the Diaspora to unite and immigrate to Eretz Israel.
The lyricist, Noah Rosenblum, worked in newspaper systems and wrote hymns.
The composer of the song, Noah Zlodkowski, served as a cantor in a synagogue in the Polish city of Kalisz and is considered one of the most important cantors and composers who grew up in Polish Jewry.
