Jerusalem my love

Love me, Lord, I really love you. Love me, Lord, I really love you. Love me, Lord, I really love you.

Oh New Jerusalem

The pupil of my eye

You are my darling that I long for

Oh New Jerusalem

The pupil of my eye

You are my masterpiece

I paid the price of blood to get you

I hope you know my deep love

I give myself to you

I hope you can accept my love

I have great power and I have great virtue

I betroth you to my wife with everlasting love

I delight in you, I long for you

I won't rest until I get you.
