ירושלים שבלב [Yerushalayim shebalev] [English translation]

Each person looks for places

and new sceneries in the world

He crosses continents and seas

in the soul's journey there

On the wings of imagination

he sails on a ship to the sea

but at the end it's the heart

the heart that leads

leads us there...

All the ways, the paths, the roads, the signs

lead to Jerusalem

All the prayers, the tears, wishes, thoughts

lead to Jerusalem

All the songs, poems, psalms, stories

they're all for Jerusalem

Jerusalem that's in the heart

It's* the joy of all the earth, the doors of the nations

it's* the light of the world

On the seven mountains it* stands

and is in everyone's dreams

From the ends of the earth they raise their eyes

The journey isn't completed

because at the end it's the heart

only the heart that leads,

leads us all there...

All the ways, the paths, the roads, the signs

lead to Jerusalem

All the prayers, the tears, wishes, thoughts

lead to Jerusalem

All the songs, poems, psalms, stories

they're all for Jerusalem

Jerusalem that's in the heart
