Ha'aleinu/L'artzeinu - Yosef Karduner - Mikdash Melech

Do you recognize the lyrics to "Ha'aleinu"? I don't. But it mellows along a beautiful thought that seems to be "Bring us up to Eretz Yisroel in order to make us worthy of its holiness." Which reminds me of the "vikuach" "bein knesses Yisroel viHakadosh Boruch Hu." ("Knesses Yisroel omeres: Hashiveinu vinashuva, vHakadosh Boruch Hu Omer: Shuvu Eilai viAshuva aleichem." Yochid v'Rabim, halacha k'Rabim.) Maybe I'm disunderstanding the words. The next song is the next track on the same trail and it works very well as such.
