Jerusalem Will Listen


Warm hills, golden sunlight

Dew distilling on the ground

And my steps wander endlessly

Seeking, searching without cease

The memory of your bright face.


Your features like rain

Pour in my mind

Your laughter like the sun

Shines in my heart

Your body like earth

Weighs heavy on my soul.


Heaven was closer then

The skies were bluer

Your eyes were so like

Two stars near the moon

Your lips were like myrrh

Your breath was like incense.


Hear my words, oh Jerusalem

Draw near the heavens

Paint blue the sky

Bring me the myrrh and the incense

Show me the stars and the moon.
