Текст песни Im Eshkochech - Mordechai Ben David

Im Eshkocheych

Im eshkacheych Yerushalayim tishkach yemini
If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget me
Im lo e'aleh et Yerushalayim al rosh simchati
If I do not keep Jerusalem in memory even at my happiest hour

אִם אֶשְׁכָּחֵךְ יְרוּשָׁלָיִם, תִּשְׁכַּח יְמִינִי
תִּדְבַּק לְשׁוֹנִי לְחִכִּי אִם לֹא אֶזְכְּרֵכִי,
אִם לֹא אַעֲלֶה אֶת יְרוּשָׁלַֽיִם עַל רֹאשׁ שִׂמְחָתִי

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
(Psa 137: 5-6)
