This 1978 song broke many records across Europe.

Lyrics: Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down.
Yeah, yeah, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down.
Yeah, yeah, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.

Then the wicked

Carried us away in captivity,
Required from us a song.
Now how shall we sing the Lord song
In a strange land.

Then the wicked

Carried us away captivity,
Requiring from us a song.
Now how shall we sing the Lord song
In a strange land.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yeaheaheaheah
Let the words of our mouth,
And the meditation of our heart,
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight.

Let the words of our mouth,
And the meditation of our heart,
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight.

By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down.
Yeah, yeah, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaah
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaah
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaah
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaah

By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down.
Yeah, yeah, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down.
Yeah, yeah, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.

Wow wow, what a nice and neatly made lyrics video, welldone, whoover done this, we will meet you in heaven INSHAAALLAH, one of my most favourite bands, I heard their few songs, in a cassette of hit songs, in the end of 1970s, I believe, this was also the first cassette which I bought, in my life, (that cassette also had some hits of another great band of Britain, Beegees, including songs like tragedy, staying alive, that band is still serving the world, these days in 2021), I was 12 years of age then, here in my country.In these days of lockdown of Covid -19 Pandemic, infact it is covid-21 I must say. I use to sing songs to my mom through our landline telephone , and I was thinking for the last few days, to sing this song for her, infact I am just about to call her now for this purpose , and as I saw the you tube a few minuites back, I found this gorgeous lyric video, which made my work easy, now I am going to do that, lots of prayers from, Rawalpindi, Northern Punjaab province, Islamic republic of Paakistaan, South Asia.
