TOGETHER
Yeedle- Composed by Abie Rotenberg, Lyrics by R’ Shmuel Yaakov Klein- Together
(Orig. Performed on Marvelous Midos Machine, Episode 3- Ahavas Yisroel)
VERSE 1:
I am an ancient wall of stone, atop a hill so high.
And if you listen with your heart, you just may hear my cry.
Where has the Bais Hamikdash gone, I stand here all alone.
How long am I to wait for all my children to come home?
A house of marble and of gold once stood here by my side.
From far and wide all came to see its beauty and its pride.
But Sin’as Chinam brought it down, and with it so much pain.
Now only Ahavas Yisroel can build it once again.
CHORUS 1:
Together, together, you stood by Har Sinai, my daughters and sons.
Forever, forever, you must stand together forever as one.
VERSE 2:
You come and stand beside my stones to raise your voice in prayer.
You ask “When will the Golus end, how much more can we bear?”.
But Sin’as Chinam still lives on, it lingers in your heart.
How can you come back home to me, while you remain apart?
CHORUS 2:
Together, together, you stood by Har Sinai, my daughter and sons.
Forever, forever, you must stand together forever as one.
Together, together, you stood by Har Sinai, B’nai Avraham.
Forever, forever, you must stand together forever as one.
