Blessed is the match consumed in kindling flame.

Can we see this as she, being the match, is consumed/inspired by the work she is doing ?
Blessed is the flame that burns in the secret fastness of the heart.

This being the energy of her service to her people - her own dedication to the effort of saving Jews in her former country?
Blessed is the heart with strength to stop its beating for honor's sake.

She would give her life if need be for the pursuit of righteousness?
Blessed is the match consumed in kindling flame.

What is kindling flame? Fire that is started and supported by an ideal?
