Raise your eyes in hope, not through the sights of guns, Sing a song to love and not to wars. My Jerusalem is the focus of the Jewish people's yearnings, the city of its visions, the cradle of its prayers. It is the dream of the return to Zion. It is the name millions murmur, even on their death bed. My Jerusalem is the tears of the paratroopers at the Western Wall in 1967 and the flag which once more waved above the remnant of the Temple.
Peace be within thy walls and prosperity within thy palaces.
We differ in our opinions, left and right. We disagree on the means and the objective. Jerusalem is not subject to compromise, and there is no peace without Jerusalem. Many used the words of the last song he sang against him. We are responsible to keep this creation alive.
