actually, the translation is a bit off, it's:
Mighty, mighty God, the Lord of Courage, Return to me my king, mend my wounds, My soul is yearning, to Your House, My King
Mighty, I sing to thee, I hymn of praise To you I give my life and my fate
Through all time, help us, Mighty God, The progeny of Abraham, offspring of greatness You are a living God, giver of the Torah
Interesting to know is that the band used ancient Hebrew (this is not modern Hebrew as used in Israel today) on a song of which the music is based upon an old Lebanese folk song. Talking about mixing the cultural elements of the Middle East! A symbolic mixture of two nations in state of near war, spreading a message of peace between the lines.
