This is an old song but for me it is still fresh. I loved this song that is why I played it again and again from UA-cam. How marvelous are your works O God the Father. Glory be to God in the highest!!!!!
That what I was thought when I heard this song last week on polish weeding... I was pretty sure that beginning of this song is one of the Psalm from Holy Bible which red long time ago 😊 thank you for confirming this 😊😊😊 I wish to hear this song once I die and relocate to heaven 😊
2024. My father, no religious bone in his body, used to play this song. For some reason he loved it. I heard it playing often and wondered about its meaning. I found out. Glory to God. Jehovah.
there's like a magic in this song that it hits so different. Then I found out that this song is a part of history where Israelites were once captive in a foreign land and were deprived from their worship. Just something I love listening but hits you to the core imagining the pains that the Israelites have experienced.
I was 12 years old when this song came out... I had no idea what the song was about then, but I remember dancing to this song with my mom and her joyfully crying as we did so... You see... shortly after I was born I was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, and given a life expectancy of between 16 and 22... So for all intents and purposes, I grew up as "the dying kid"... Then at the age of 12 I was in Childrens Hospital getting a battery of tests that confirmed I actually did NOT have Cystic Fibrosis. It was not until later in life when this song came on my moms playlist one day that my mom told me the story of this song, and what it meant TO HER... She said that on the way home from that hospital visit where they found out I was 'going to to live' that this song came on the radio and it became her favorite song... and she wanted to dance and cry at the same time... I never knew at the time when we were dancing to it what significance the song had to her, nor why she would always cry and dance with me every time it came on... Anyway.. I just thought I would share this story. Neither my mom nor I are religious people, but it still holds a special meaning for us... she passed away earlier this year and when I heard this song for the first time in ages, it reminded me of how much I miss her and I had to go find the sing on youtube, play it again and dance around and cry...
It bears special significance to us as a black race. As we celebrate Black History month. May we as a people unite and remember where we came and unite. We are indeed a liberated people. Guidance from the Yahweh, Jehoviah, The Most High God The Father.
The real Israelites NEVER called themselves "jewish". That title belongs to those usurpers that occupy Jerusalem now. The real Israelites are all still scattered across the world, but a lot of us are waken up and remembering our heritage!
@@DJthe2nd Ever wonder why it's called the Babylonian Talmud? I hate to break it to you, but the descendants of David lived on as the Jewish people. I for instance can trace my lineage back to King David, like many other Jews. "On the rivers of Babylon, there we sat, we also cried as we remembered Zion. On the willows, in the midst, we hung our harps, for there our captors demanded of us to sing and jeered at us, "sing for us the songs of Zion." How can we sing the Lord's song on alien soil" If I forget Jerusalem, I shall lose my right hand; my lounge shall cleave to its palate if I do not remember, if I don't put Jerusalem at the top of my thought. Remember God the sons of Edom, who said, "completely destroy until its foundation". Daughters of Babylon, happy are those who retribute for what you have done for us. Happy are those who take your young ones and smash them against the rock."
@@DJthe2ndIsraelites called themselves Hebrews or Judahs. Jewish is English name. They are the most original ancient and lawful owners of Israel. This land was given to them by God. Palestinians and Muslims in general arrived there way way later. Islam is the youngest religion of all. 😅
When I was younger I didn’t know any English so they play this song at parties and everybody was dancing like a disco song, until a couple of years ago someone told me it was a psalm I feel really bad not knowing that before 😢
There are songs of the age of this one, beautiful and meaning but I always feel like this has an special touch of something I can't explain. Now I know why and it is because there's inspired by Psalms, also God's words. 🙏
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against what you wrote. But wait a sec. Notice the MUSIC of this song, as opposed to what nowdays is considered music (made by computers and simple speach instead of singing). I remember this song since I was 4 -5 years old and mom used to listen to other singers she liked (Doris Day, Lisa Minelli ecc) and ..them Boney M. What a coincidence that I like another Bonnie, but Raitt.
Psalm 137 1 By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion. 2 There on the poplars we hung our harps, 3 for there our captors asked us for songs, our tormentors demanded songs of joy; they said, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!” 4 How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign land? 5 If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand forget its skill. 6 May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy. 7 Remember, Lord, what the Edomites did on the day Jerusalem fell. “Tear it down,” they cried, “tear it down to its foundations!” 8 Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is the one who repays you according to what you have done to us. 9 Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.

This song has been a blessing to me since i was a kid back in Kenya. I have lived here in Washington State since i moved to USA in 2008 and i still enjoy listening to this song. God is good and faithful.
Anyone in February 2025 or just 2025. This song for those who don't know is psalm 137. How people remember God when bad times are upon them for straying away from God, so they are captive and need God to deliver them so thus they remember Zion, when they were free. The Israelites are pleading to God to deliver them, yet again. It's a beautiful song and many people have no idea it came from the bible.
This song is very touchjng,especially to the Jews who was exile to Babylon,i feel their longing to God and in Zion the place they could praise and worship God.
For anyone who is curious, it’s referencing the story about the ‘Babylonian captivity of the Hebrew’s’… What has always appealed to me is you don’t need to believe in anything to enjoy it!! Absolutely AMAZING music🙂🏳️🌈
I recommend that you research a little about the history of this city and the mythology (especially the Enuma Elish). Mesopotamia as a whole is also so fascinating that I can't stop studying it
A good movie from autobiographical novel I dreamed of Africa by Kuki Gallman. God bless you. I'm originally from Kenya but I have lived in Washington State,USA since 2008.

Psalms 137:1-9 [1]By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. [2]We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

Aaah... Babylon, the modern system of this world, taking captive the people of God, making them slaves, walking on their backs, mocking them, teasing them to sing for God, but how will they sing the Lord's song in a strange land? And so by the rivers of Babylon, they sat down and wept, when they remembered Zion.
Psalmul 136 1. La râul Babilonului, acolo am şezut şi am plâns când ne-am adus aminte de Sion. 2. În sălcii, în mijlocul lor, am atârnat harpele noastre. 3. Că acolo cei ce ne-au robit pe noi ne-au cerut nouă cântare, zicând: «Cântaţi-ne nouă din cântările Sionului!». 4. Cum să cântăm cântarea Domnului în pământ străin?

It is based on PSALM 137, by David Hamelech (King David). It is said before Prayers after eating a meal (with Bread) by the Children of Israel on weekdays (not Sabbath or Festivals, and special "Mitzvah" occasions...circumcision, etc). Prophetically King David was shown a vision by G-d of the destruction of both temples, in case you wonder HOW COULD KING DAVID write about being "shlepped" to Babylon, when that event didn't happen in his lifetime.
Sent my dad here, he's just discovered that through his entire life he never realised that this is about the Israelites getting kicked out of Jerusalem and taking away to Babylon He was like what? I was like yeah Dad here's the lyrics

Ezra 8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
This is extremely a religious songs but some worldly people dance it not right take for the lyrics this is actually a sad song for the Israelites during their captivity in Babylon and weep more for their beloved land
You all know that this amazing song originates from the Psalms and it describes the Israeli tribes who cried when they were driven out of Zion (known as Israel 🇮🇱)
@@expiredmilk763 the term “israel” has been used to describe both the land and the people for thousands of years. the name “israel” originally comes from jacob. his descendants-the twelve tribes-were known as the israelites. they eventually formed the kingdom of israel in the land that also came to be called israel in modern days. you’re quite literally embarrassing yourself, there is no sense in what you wrote.

[5] If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand forget its skill. [6] May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy. [7] Remember, Lord, what the Edomites did on the day Jerusalem fell. “Tear it down,” they cried, “tear it down to its foundations!” [8] Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is the one who repays you according to what you have done to us. [9] Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.
Bonney M super good songs. I was 10 living in Romania when I heard not only Bonney M songs but also ABBA songs. Never gets old. My children also grew up listening by to the songs❣️
I heard this song in the 1970s..I was a teenager then.
Aaah... Babylon, the modern system of this world, taking captive the people of God, making them slaves, walking on their backs, mocking them, teasing them to sing for God, but how will they sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
And so by the rivers of Babylon, they sat down and wept, when they remembered Zion.
One of the greatest song i've ever heard since i was young
The Almighty God will bless all the true believers of His Kingdom.
Amen
Psalm 137 : 1 By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept
when we remembered Zion.
Year by year we all are getting older😢😢.. but this song never gets old
And it has always been like that
Consider that Psalm 137 upon which this song is based is over 2,500 years old! Yet the words still resonate with us to his very day.
Psalmul 136
1. La râul Babilonului, acolo am şezut şi am plâns când ne-am adus aminte de Sion.
2. În sălcii, în mijlocul lor, am atârnat harpele noastre.
3. Că acolo cei ce ne-au robit pe noi ne-au cerut nouă cântare, zicând: «Cântaţi-ne nouă din cântările Sionului!».
4. Cum să cântăm cântarea Domnului în pământ străin?
Its really a beautiful song. Thank you so much for sharing this video. More power. GOD bless.
This song was written by David but it will be heard by many people then people will be the children of God! Love God who created you ! Glory to God?Say Amen!
It was my dad's favorite song who left this world... I miss him so much now that I listen to the song again T.T
FYI, the lyrics of this song is found in the Bible in Psalm 137:1-3❤

It is based on PSALM 137, by David Hamelech (King David). It is said before Prayers after eating a meal (with Bread) by the Children of Israel on weekdays (not Sabbath or Festivals, and special "Mitzvah" occasions...circumcision, etc). Prophetically King David was shown a vision by G-d of the destruction of both temples, in case you wonder HOW COULD KING DAVID write about being "shlepped" to Babylon, when that event didn't happen in his lifetime.
What a beautiful song....why I am so late to listen this song...really touching the heart.....
Sent my dad here, he's just discovered that through his entire life he never realised that this is about the Israelites getting kicked out of Jerusalem and taking away to Babylon
He was like what?
I was like yeah Dad here's the lyrics
Who's here with me 2024?❤❤❤

So good today now❤

Kung sapagkat hiniling namin na umawit ang diyos, "Kailangan ng isang kanta" ngayon pano kakantahin ang awit ng diyos
Mighty God, All glory to him,
What a beautiful song,
A real life story
O zion, O Jerusalem how can I forget you, love you and praying for you, may God bless you and give Victory over all enemies ✌️✌️✌️💞✝️🇮🇱💞✝️🇮🇱💞✝️🇮🇱✌️✌️✌️
I don't care about others, I love this song

Que tiene ésta canción que al escucharla por primera vez la amas asi como amas a Dios 😭🥺
Psalm 19:14
King James Version
14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
Letra traducida al Español
Junto a los ríos de Babilonia, allí nos sentábamos
Sí, lloramos cuando recordábamos a Sión.
Junto a los ríos de Babilonia, allí nos sentábamos
Sí, lloramos cuando recordábamos a Sión.
Allí los malvados
Nos llevaron en cautiverio
Y nos pedían que cantásemos una canción.
Está bien, pero ¿cómo cantaremos el cántico del Señor en tierra extraña?
Allí los malvados
Nos llevaron en cautiverio
Pidiéndonos una canción
Pero ¿cómo cantaremos el cántico del Señor en tierra extraña?
Sí, sí, sí, sí, sí.
Deja que las palabras de nuestra boca y la meditación de nuestro corazón
Sea aceptable ante Tus ojos santos aquí esta noche
Que las palabras de nuestra boca y la meditación de nuestro corazón
Sea aceptable ante Tus ojos santos aquí esta noche
Junto a los ríos de Babilonia, allí nos sentábamos
a llorar cuando recordábamos a Sión.
Junto a los ríos de Babilonia, allí nos sentábamos
a llorar cuando recordábamos a Sión.
Por los ríos de Babilonia (lágrimas oscuras de Babilonia)
Allí nos sentábamos (tienes que cantarnos una canción)
Sí, llorábamos (canta una canción de amor)
Cuando recordábamos a Sión (sí, sí, sí, sí, sí)
Por los ríos de Babilonia (piedrecillas ásperas de Babilonia)
Ahí nos sentábamos (se oye llorar a la gente)
Sí, llorábamos (necesitan a su Dios)
Cuando recordamos a Sión (oh, recibe el poder)
Junto a los ríos de Babilonia (oh sí, sí), allí nos sentábamos (sí, sí)
Ezra 8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
Thanks for posting with lyrics Wonderbar! Bellimisimo!
this song never gets old. because is the word of god.
And because it's kind of timeless music
Very true
God
This is extremely a religious songs but some worldly people dance it not right take for the lyrics this is actually a sad song for the Israelites during their captivity in Babylon and weep more for their beloved land
❤Still enjoying and learning the lyrics more and more. Thanks for making our childhood fun
Always and every year I could listen to this song
Psalm :137 .1WEB The River of Babylons,there we sat down ,yes we wept ,when we remembered Zion ...❤❤❤
Such a wonderful beautiful heart touching song one of my favorites I can say ❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this beautiful song. I enjoy listening.
You all know that this amazing song originates from the Psalms and it describes the Israeli tribes who cried when they were driven out of Zion (known as Israel 🇮🇱)
You mean Jewish tribes
There was no such a thing called as “Israel” except that it was used to describe prophet Jacob.
@@expiredmilk763 the term “israel” has been used to describe both the land and the people for thousands of years. the name “israel” originally comes from jacob. his descendants-the twelve tribes-were known as the israelites. they eventually formed the kingdom of israel in the land that also came to be called israel in modern days. you’re quite literally embarrassing yourself, there is no sense in what you wrote.
I never ear this song before. But today I saw the post on face book psalm 137. Verses with song after I search on youtube... I really excited ...
I find this song really relaxing and calming! ❤
Me too ❤
From the Bible Psalm 137

Dzisiaj szukając czegoś w internecie, by przejrzeć coś bądź posłuchać pojawił mi się właśnie ten utwór. On kojarzy mi się z moim ślubem który, brałam w 29 lipca 1978 roku był wtedy bardzo modny i nam się bardzo podobał!!Tańczyliśmy i bawiliśmy się przy tej melodii!! 29 marca czyli za 2 dni miną 2 miesiące od śmierci mojego męża słuchając płakałam bo wiem, że ta piosenka to kolejny znak od niego❤Jest ich wiele i to też nie przypadek, to kolejne moje łzy po jego śmierci ❤️
Praise God 🙏 Hallelujah 🖐️
