R' Nachman Schapiro teaches his camp song Veeisei Saveidu (3) | ר' נחמן שפירא: ואותו תעבודו

Description

(Tune of Nigun Shabbos Ve’Yomtov (Nigun #77)) When all was still, there arose in His will A desire for a nation, and therefore creation On children can be no sovereignty Only on עבדים נפרדים from He No want of his own, but the Melech’s alone No greatness achieved, but G-d’s pleasure perceived ואותו תעבודו is only through fear Not by yearning to be very near The hour is late, we cannot wait For our minds and hearts to elevate Although without feeling, we still must do אנא עבדא דקודשא בריך הוא No want of his own, but the Melech’s alone No greatness achieved, but G-d’s pleasure perceived ואותו תעבודו is only through fear And this brings Moshiach near
