Like you just typed it... Amen, Yehe Shme Rabba...
This is a response in the Kaddish prayer, which we say in memory of our departed relatives.
I will be saying Kaddish this Tuesday in memory of my father who died on the 22 of Tevet 5770.
The prayer is an exaltation of Hashems glorious name, and the response is full is "Amen Yehe Shme Rabba Mevorach LaOlam Olmay Olmaya" which means "Amen, May his great name be blessed forever and ever"...

MOURNER'S KADDISH
An English Translation
Glorified and sanctified be G-d's great name throughout the world which He has created according to His will. May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days, and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon; and say, Amen.
May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.
Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored, adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He, beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.
May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us
and for all Israel; and say, Amen.
He who creates peace in His celestial heights, may He create peace for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.
