Orthodox me now, my darling,
orthodox me now, around you,
orthodox me tight, my darling,
orthodox me tightly now.

Orthodox me, oh
my love, Jeruzalem!

Orthodox me tightly now,
orthodox me, step by step.
Orthodox me, rope around you,
orthodox me around your neck.

Orthodox me, oh! Oh
my love Jeruzalem! Oh
my darling! Orthodox me
strong and tightly.

Orthodox me forth and
back. Orthodox me, just
around you. Orthodox me
right and hang. Oh my love,
Jeruzalem! Orthodox me!

Heavy load around my neck.
