A unique interpretation of “Hatikva,” this version unfolds in Arabic, carried by the warm resonance of a Palestinian oud, the shimmering delicacy of a qanun, and the soulful cry of a violin. Traditional motifs blend with contemporary phrasing, creating a tender, contemplative soundscape that evokes longing, shared heritage, and the fragile hope for understanding across divided hearts in a moment of quiet musical reflection.

Lyrics:
Alright, Marlon Asher are you ready to sing with me
I’ll introduce myself my name is Leah

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth

I’m calling to the youth, it’s high time you know the truth
Stop providing the world with something to say about you
Yes your war and your crimes, you violence will take you nowhere
I’m telling you my youth it’s high time you learn to pray

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth

Ey man, we ram this jam and if you stlll don’t know where I’m from
Let me say it again I come from a town called Amsterdam
Where when the going gets tough it will keep you going
Allow the love in your heart to keep on growing
Live, love, hope and care for the people around you always be there

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth

They’ve been telling you about the world
And how there is a better place for all the boys and girls
But this is the fact and it would remain the same
The Father is the Lord and he is coming again

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth

Mr. Asher ‘pon the microphone stand 
Talking to the youths of Amsterdam
Change around your ways if you know you do wrong
If you kept twist back you better twist it up front
Almighty Jah Jah is your salvation
Forget the evilous plan of Satan
Satan layer with them injunction 
Because them want to see the youth do wrong

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth

Say a prayer unto the Almighty One
Our Father who walks in Zion
Don’t let the youth go down in destruction
Help us from the arms of the wicked satan
In Amsterdam things have gone wrong
And all the youths them under contention
So we chant love and unity peace and life
Yes no strife, you stay alive

From the eastside of Amsterdam I send my love into the land, man
Trying to reach the youth by telling them the truth, I hope it gets understood
From the eastside of Amsterdam me say I will trouble no one man
Trying to reach the youth: turn off your television if you wanna hear the truth



Amsterdam ft. Marlon Asher

Deep Tish Records is a creative sanctuary founded by AMS (engineer, producer, writer, composer) and Dutchess (violinist, musician, composer, performer). Together, they merge the precision of technology with the soul of ancient rhythm — crafting sound as a bridge, not a border, and transforming vibration into emotion.

Born from migration and spirit, Deep Tish stands where music becomes movement — where trap, progressive house, psytrance, and dubstep pulse beneath grand orchestrations, both Western and Eastern, European and Oriental. Every track carries the heartbeat of Zion: the fusion of opposites, the unity of cultures, and the freedom to create without permission.

But Deep Tish is more than a label — it’s a mission. A home for artists, teens, and dreamers shaping the future of ethical, AI-driven creation. A place where sound remains sacred, even in a digital age, and where innovation serves emotion, not the other way around.

From the caves of Jerusalem to the skyline of Tel Aviv, Deep Tish carries one truth: music still unites. It’s a movement of balance — ancient and futuristic, organic and electronic — echoing the timeless call to dance, to dream, and to remember that rhythm is our common language.
