THE WINGS OF AN EAGLE- Ruach Revival- Composed by Devorah Weiss- Rucheinu

I will fly
On the wings of an eagle,
I will fly to a land
That is free,
Where my children
Can grow and prosper.

Oh come, oh come!
My beloved, with me.

So he dreamed a dream,
And plotted a scheme
With no harm to any,
He’d escape secretly.
But they came in the morning
They came without warning,
With no mercy for dreamers,
Who yearned to be free.

Oh no, she cried,
Don’t leave me this way,
For I am a child
Awaiting my day.
But they left her in her loneliness
Alone with her tears
With nothing but the echo
Of his words, in her ears.

I will fly
On the wings of an eagle
I will fly to a land
That is free,
Oh, where my children
Can grow and prosper.

Oh come, oh come!
My beloved, with me.

So they took him away,
No visitors, they say,
But she bore him a child
Let him know that she’s well
But they answered- change your name
And spare your child the shame
Of knowing that his father
Is a wanted criminal.

But she swears as I live
Each time that baby cries
These are the words
Of my constant mood
Halevai.

I will fly
On the wings of an eagle
I will fly to a land
That is free,
Oh, where my children
Can grow and prosper.

Oh come, oh come!
My beloved, with me.
