Daughter of Zion! awake from thy sadness:
Awake, for thy foes shall oppress thee no more;
Bright o’er thy ills dawns the day-star of gladness;
Arise! for the night of thy sorrow is o’er.
Strong were thy foes, but the arm that subdued them,
And scattered their legions, was mightier far;
They fled, like the chaff, from the scourge that pursued them;
For vain were their steeds and their chariots of war!
Daughter of Zion! the Power that hath saved thee,
Extolled with the harp and the timbrel should be:
Shout! for the foe is destroyed that enslaved thee,
The oppressor is vanquished, and Zion is free!
