1. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat, sat and wept, as we thought of Zion.
2. There on the poplars we hung up our lyres,3. for our captors asked use there for songs, our
tormentors, for amusement, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion.”
4. How can we sing a song of the Lord on alien soil?5. If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand wither;6. Let my tongue stick to my palate if I cease to think of
you, if I do not keep Jerusalem in memory even at my happiest hour
