My Heart is Dancing in Jerusalem by Sam Glaser
"God will fulfill your heart's desire, Take you to the place you want to go"
Keep dreaming of the land of your history,
And you're walking the streets before you know
On wings of eagles they took to the sky Not sure how this magic carpet would fly
Then cries of joy at the first Shalom, 50,000 Yemenites coming home
My heart is dancing in Jerusalem
Next came Ezra and Nechemia, Redeeming our brothers of Babylon
2000 years in the shuq of Bagdad, Soon every last soul would come along
Though it seemed impossible to achieve, Morocco's Jews were the next to leave
They're a pillar of the temple of Solomon,
Hear the sound of French ringing through Zion
My heart is dancing in Jerusalem
Soon we'll be dancing in Jerusalem
The whole world dancing in Jerusalem
V'lirushalayim ir'cha
B'rachamim tashuv
V'tishkon b'tocha
Ka'asher dibarta
Beta Israel watched in awe, From the tribe of Dan in Ethiopia
Slipping through the border of the Sudan, They crossed the desert to reach their land
We marched for the rights of refusnikim, To help them realize their aliyah dream
After 70 years of a living hell, See the celebration when that curtain fell
My heart is dancing in Jerusalem
Soon we'll be dancing in Jerusalem
The whole world dancing in Jerusalem
Your heart is dancing in Jerusalem
Time to come home to Jerusalem
"And to Jerusalem, Your city, may You return in compassion,
and may You rest within it, as You have spoken"
