Oh how precious, oh how pure, the closeness back then How we long to see you again. ותחזינה עינינו Our eyes will see The crown proudly worn by Moshiach our king We never lose faith, we continue to pray Bring us Moshiach right away. And very soon in the Beis Hamikdash, gathered all as one Shabbos, Yom Tov and Rosh Chodesh every Yid will come The whole world will serve You, Your presence we’ll feel אבינו... With love, you will lead every Yid by the hand, With miracles, you will return him to our holy land, All together with our Father, no one left behind.   United together, now and forever, spirits rising high With brotherly love in Yerushalayim, Am Yisroel Chai The whole world will then know that Ein Oid Milvadoi.
