A woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you,
I know it will never end
A woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you,
I know it will never end
You are prettier than the
lilies in the palace
Softer than the morning dew
Strong as a lion, as cunning as a fox,
you can be all you want to
All the principles of godliness
you get from your youth
Always fighting for the right
and speaking the truth
A woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you,
cannot say it will never end
A woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you,
cannot say it will never end
So many afflictions that she bears
Along the rugged path
But because of her strong
faith in John,
she was able to be his dead friend
John will surely bless her
for the work she has done
Rejoice, daughter of Zion,
for better is there to come
a woman of Israel
O daughter of Jerusalem,
the respect I have for you,
I don't say it will never end.
O woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem,
the respect I have for you,
I don't say it will never end.
No, never end, no.
Oh, weep not, pray not,
O daughter of Zion,
for you have found favor
in the sight of God.
For all the jubilation that you face,
the Lord will make you very, very glad.
A woman of Israel,
Daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you, Janos Yisrael
A woman of Israel,
daughter of Jerusalem,
the respect I have for you
cannot be hidden,
never at the wall, no
Oh, oh, I embrace you,
cherish you, love you
I you, love you
I hold you in high esteem
Oh, oh, you are African queen
Oh, oh, you woman of Israel
Daughter of Jerusalem
The respect I have for you
Don't you try to see through their play
