In context

²There on the willows we hung our harps,

³For there our captors requested a song; our tormentors demanded songs of joy: “Sing us a song of Zion.”

⁴How can we sing a song of the LORD in a foreign land?

⁵If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand cease to function.

⁶May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not exalt Jerusalem as my greatest joy!
