Im Eshkachech Yerushalayim

If I Forget You, Jerusalem

Im Eshkachech Yerushalayim

If I forget you, JerusalemIm eshkachech Yerushalayim
May my right hand forget its skillTishkach yemini
May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouthTid'bak leshoni lechiki
If I do not remember youIm-lo ezkereichi:
If I do not set JerusalemIm-lo a'aleh et Yerushalayim
above my highest joyal rosh simchati
Those who say:Ha'omrim:
'Destroy, destroy— down to the foundation in it!'"Aru, aru— ad hayessod bah!"
