The Rose of Cities

To you city of prayer I pray
To you the beauty of all residence,
The rose of all cities, Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Jerusalem
The city of prayer
I pray

Our eyes migrate to you every night
Navigate through the temples
Hug the old churches
And wipe the sadness off the mosques
The night of the Esra
The path of those who passed to heaven
Our eyes migrate to you every night
And I pray

The baby in the cave and his mother Mary are two faces crying
Crying to those who been driven away from their land
To children without homes
To those who fought and been martyred in the entrances
And peace has been martyred, in the city of peace
And justice has fallen on the doors
Justice has fallen on the doors

When the city of Jerusalem has fallen
Love fell back, and in the hearts of the world war took residence
The baby in cave and his mother Mary are two faces crying
And I’m praying

The shining rage is coming
And I’m full of faith
The shining rage is coming
I will pass through sorrow
From every path it’s coming
By the horses of terror it’s coming
And as the encompassing face of god
It’s coming, it’s coming, it’s coming,

The door to our city will not be closed
I’m going there to pray
I will knock on the doors
And I will open the doors
And O Jordanian River, you will wash my face with holy water
And O Jordanian River, you will erase the steps of the reckless feet

The shining rage is coming
By the horses of terror, it’s coming
And it will defeat the face of power
It will defeat the face of power
It will defeat the face of power

The house is ours, and Jerusalem is ours
And with our hands we will bring back the beauty of Jerusalem
By our hands peace to Jerusalem
Peace to Jerusalem is coming
Peace to Jerusalem is coming
Peace to Jerusalem is coming
 
And peace has been martyred, in the city of peace

And peace has been martyred in all over the world
And innocent children have been killed before they could learn the joy of childhood
 
sure :)
