I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well, I think only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun
But never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once
No never, never, never
I listen to my words but they fall far below
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go
I've swam upon the devil's lake
But never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never
Where I'll end up, well, I think only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun
But never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once
No never, never, never
I listen to my words but they fall far below
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go
I've swam upon the devil's lake
But never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never

Just to be clear, it's impossible for a muslim to be anti-semitic, given that Islam is a semitic religion and Arabic is a semitic language. Islam is not an anti-semitic religion, in early days jews and christians had a special protected status in muslim society. The conflict between Israel en the Palestines is not a religious conflict, people just abuse religion to make bad deeds seems good. Still, supporting hamas i's not a very good idea, neither is supporting Israel, by the way. And now, back to the song, before getting into a complicated political debate :) I really love this song, I read Cat Stevens converted to Islam after almost drowning when he went swimming, maybe that has something to do with "I swam upon the devil's lake". It's a very simple, pure and spiritual song, it touches me every time I hear it.
