Would "Dona, Dona" be considered a WWII song?

I did get a book from the library that had a lot of Jewish songs -- mostly in Yiddish -- about the Holocaust and WWII. Naturally, most of these are not happy songs, but some, like "Dona, Dona" and the German "Die Gedanken Sind Frei," are defiant and/or a tribute to the strength of the desire for freedom and the struggle to overcome oppression.
