For every wall a lament

In Jerusalem the golden

And a thousand wasted lives

For every commandment

I am dust of your wind

And though I bleed from your wound

And every cherished stone

Keeps my deepest love

There's not a stone in the world

That is worth as much as a life

I am a Moorish Jew

That lives with the Christians

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

There's no death that doesn't hurt me

There's no winning side

There's nothing but pain

And another life that flies away

War is a very bad school

It doesn't matter the costume it wears

Forgive me that I don't enlist

Under no flag

Any dream is worth more

Than a sad piece of cloth

I am a Moorish Jew

That lives with the Christians

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

And I gave nobody permission

To kill in my name

A man is no more than a man

And, if there's God, that's how He wanted it

The same soil I tread

Will go on, I will be gone

Bound as well for oblivion

There's no doctrine that doesn't go

And there's no people that haven't

Believed themselves the chosen people

I am a Moorish Jew

That lives with the Christians

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

I don't know which God is mine

Nor which ones are my brothers

I am a Moorish Jew

That lives with the Christians
