Not so long ago, standing with you
in front of remnants of ancient Babylonian gates.
Having just left hallowed grounds of more recent destructions.
Looking back in time.
Where are they now!
Those destroyers of Temples and Jews.
Today, once again, standing with you.
Celebrating in our Temple with generations you helped renew.
Wishing Happy 90th Birthday to you!
