Zion
Zion (Hebrew: צִיּוֹן Ṣiyyôn), also transliterated Sion, Sayon, Syon, Tzion or Tsion, is a place name often used as a synonym for Jerusalem. The word is first found in 2 Samuel 5:7 which dates from c.630–540 BCE according to modern scholarship. It commonly referred to a specific mountain near Jerusalem (Mount Zion), on which stood a Jebusite fortress of the same name that was conquered by David and was named the City of David. The term Tzion came to designate the area of Jerusalem where the fortress stood, and later became a metonym for Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, the city of Jerusalem and "the World to Come", the Jewish understanding of the hereafter.
In Kabbalah the more esoteric reference is made to Tzion being the spiritual point from which reality emerges, located in the Holy of Holies of the First, Second and Third Temple.
Etymology
The etymology of the word Zion (ṣiyôn) is uncertain. Mentioned in the Bible in the Book of Samuel (2 Samuel 5:7) as the name of the Jebusite fortress conquered by King David, its origin likely predates the Israelites. If Semitic, it may be derived from the Hebrew root ṣiyyôn ("castle") or the Hebrew ṣiyya ("dry land," Jeremiah 51:43). A non-Semitic relationship to the Hurrian word šeya ("river" or "brook") has also been suggested.

Tzion
by: ShakhanYes a man is born into trouble it comes like the day turns to night
The sun turns to ran and a man is born into trouble like a jew in germany like a slave in chains.
And the wind is so heavy and the earth raise to meet.
Within this body of clay a heart of gold does beat.
Chorus
And with the wind in my hair and with the sun on my face
Join me and run to the higher place.
Yes a man is born into trouble comes like the heat to the desert like the pain to the cut and a man is born into trouble like a woman says love like a woman turns away.
And we live on the border yer the border of night and day within this body of clay with sorrow and so much pain sorrow and so much pain.
Chorus
And with the wind in my hair and with the sun on my face
Join me and run to the higher place.
Yes a man is born into trouble comes like the child hurt in play and like lovers in what they say.
And a man is born into trouble like a church in Russia and like a power play.
And yes run the good race fight the good fight within this body of clay and that's all I want to say
