On the rivers of the Babylonian, Cedoch and the crown, to mention the Zion to us. On the verbal medo -out of his deposit of € ours. As for the habit of us, captivity of us about the verbal of the song and the leading of us about singing: sing us from the song of the Zion. What will we sing the song of the Lord on the earth of alien? If I forget you, Jerusalem, Obvyona my right hand. My tongue is my larynx, if I won’t remember you, I won’t offer Jerusalem, like at the beginning of my fun. Remember, Lord, the sons of Osomskiy, verbaling on Jerusaleml on the day: deplete, deplete to the foundations of it. Babylonia is cursed, blessed, he will give you your rewarding, hedged to us. Blessed, he has and breaks your babies on a stone.
Translation: under the rivers of Babylon, we sat there and cried when we remembered Zion; On the verbes, in the middle of him, we hung our harp. There, those who captivated us demanded from us with the songs and our oppressors - fun: "Sprinkle us from the song of the Zion." How can we sing a song of the Lord on Earth a stranger? If I forget you, Jerusalem, - forget my right hand; Stick my tongue to my larynx if I don’t remember you if I do not put Jerusalem at the head of my merry. Remember, Lord, to the sons of the eight day of Jerusalem, when they said: "Destroy, destroy to the foundation of it." Babylon's daughter, devastated! Blessed, who will reward you for what you did to us! Blessed, who will take and break your babies on a stone!
