Lyrics:
By the riv-ers of Bab-y-lon,
There we sat down, yea, we wept
When we re-mem-bered Zi-on.
We hung our harps up-on the wil-lows
For there our cap-tors asked of us a song,
Our tor-men-tors de-mand-ed a song of joy;
Say-ing, “Sing us one of the songs of Zi-on!”
How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a for-eign land?
If I for-get you,
O Jer-u-sa-lem,
Let my right hand for-get its skill!
If I don't re-mem-ber you,
Let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
If I do not ex-alt Jer-u-sa-lem a-bove my chief joy.
Re-mem-ber, O Lord, a-gainst the sons of E-dom
The day of Jer-u-sa-lem,
Who said, “Raze it, raze it,
To its foun-da-tion!”
O daugh-ter of Bab-y-lon,
Who are to be de-stroyed,
Hap-py is the one who re-pays you as you have served us!
Hap-py is the one who seiz-es and dash-es
Your in-fants a-gainst the stones!
