ARIEL

Too many tears,my Angel
pogroms, massacres
too many years we dwell on
the past sorrows of Man
and the sadness of women
in our life span
when enemies could tell us
to put on yellow stars
yet we are set free,
today we weep for you
a shining light
so young and strong
with Solomon's love song
as God is sharing His words
with you for you belong
sharing in the land of the living
taking away our tears into the sea
and we ask for your forgiving
that the enemy be also aware
at those who took her away
who do not understand
that in spite of it all
we are sure she is with you
please restore us in Zion
please take away our thousand
and one fears every day
for you are all in His people
under the wonders
of a Jerusalem sun
and steeple
whom God cares for.
