Poor Jerusalem |
JESUSNeither you, Simon, nor the fifty thousand, |
Nor the Romans, nor the Jews, |
Nor Judas, nor the twelve |
Nor the priests, nor the scribes, |
Nor doomed Jerusalem itself, |
Understand what power is, |
Understand what glory is, |
Understand at all, |
Understand at all. |
If you knew all that I knew, my poor Jerusalem, |
You’d see the truth, but you close your eyes… |
But you close your eyes. |
While you live your troubles are many, poor Jerusalem. |
To conquer death, you only have to die. |
You only have to die. |
