BEAUTIFUL TOWN
Beautiful town joy to your cities
you are a loyal city to your king and your princes
I'll remember the day the splendor of your armies
for you my soul stopped dwelling of your courtyards
And who shall let me (please) I'll fly as (a) dove(s)
I'll kiss your rocks, I will endow your ashes
My soul did not go calm since the a lover's wander
from the day of children's revelation from your home.
I'll drop my grace before the lord of the universe
he shall make your gates rise and build your sacred places.
We shall see your joy as numerous in days as the years of the world
the time of the coming of your redemption to build your fences.
So rejoice forever and surely sojourn
Your children's peace will be more plentiful than ever in your past.
