Jerusalem

From the Jordan
God spoke to man
Thou shalt not kill
Hear, O Israel
Land without peace where the believer
In confusion
Claims power

Oh, the lilies burn
Of Jerusalem

Jerusalem marked city
The cruel sword will not depart
From north to south thunder
Its mountains
While its light
Turns to darkness

Oh, the lilies burn
Of Jerusalem

Among the darkness
War is planned
Peoples without messiah
And children of the Quran

Strip, autonomy
Palestinian issue
While they debate
What to sacrifice

Centuries without peace in the Middle East
Today politics and faith fight
Life and death won't matter
What you will see is not reality

Oh! The lilies burn
Of Jerusalem
Oh! Marked city
Of Jerusalem
