I understand that you want to develop your application in "EmacsOS";), that is, using Emacs as a "operating system" or "framework" or "virtual machine" (or whatever is the current buzzword at the moment), so that you get high portability (without Java etc.). One thing that comes to mind is Clojure (with which I have zero experience), but it gives you the benefits of Lisp, of portability (at least as much as Java does) and of libraries (read JVM).
