אהבת הדסה על לבבי נקשרה
ואני בתוך גולה פעמי צוללים
לו יש רשות אעלה אתחברה
תוך שערי ציון אשר הם נהללים

Ve'ani betoch gola paamay tzolelim;

Toch she'arey zion asher hem nehelalim;"

Title
Rabbi Shalom Shabazi
Translation
English

Translated by jairhaas
Target language: English

The love of Hadassah is tied to my heart
and my steps are sunk deep in the exile.
If I could I would go up and join
within the gates of Zion which are praised.
Remarks about the translation
This is the first half of a famous poem by the renowned poet of the Jewish exile of Yemen, Rabbi Shalom Shabazi (17th century).By "Hadassah" is probably meant - the Land of Israel, to which the poet yearned deeply.
