Sometimes it takes a niggun a few years before sharing with the world.
The Anapoli Niggun is just that.
On a bitter cold and rainy evening in the winter of 2017, I was with a group of soul brothers, praying at the gravesites of the Maggid of Mezritch and Reb Zusha, in Anapoli, Ukraine.
Being a Kohen, I was unable to join the fiery singing and praying which was taking place beneath the structure itself. Thankfully, I had a guitar with me, and asked Hashem for a gift.
A few moments later, this niggun came down. We sang and danced with it — for what seemed like hours.
For the past 6 years, Kehilat Shirat David in Efrat has been praying with this melody. While seeing the children's faces light up whenever this niggun is sung, it now feels right to share it with everyone else.
Six years after it's composition, it was introduced at a live concert, in the heart of the world, the holy city Yerushalayim.
Everything real can only be scheduled through G-d's clock.
