BANAI CHAVIVAI- Miami Boys Choir- Composed by Shlomo Yehuda Rechnitz, Lyrics by Mrs. Ruchie Torgow- Single 2019

In just a short while, I will be a בַּר מִצְוָה
Time to reflect, my place at this stage
With hopes to complete, an entire מַסֶּכֶת
To strengthen myself now, as I come of age.

With so much to gain, in understanding and clarity
Each דַף I’ll review, again and again
The גְּמָָרָא that I’ve learned, will become a part of me
To bask in this treasure, that comes from Hashem.

CHORUS:
חֲזוּ חֲזוּ, בָּנַי חֲבִיבַי
So dear to Hashem, when I’m striving so high
אוֹי וְעַסְקִין, בְּחֶדְוָתָא דִילִי
With חֲזָרָה, each word, so precious to me.
הֲדַרָן עַלָךְ, I will say with sincerity
and long to go back, to review once again
A בַּר מִצְוָה indeed, I feel that I’ve grown
For the תּוֹרָה I’ve learned, is truly my own.

I anxiously wait, as the day is approaching
Feeling prepared, like never before
I devoted so much time, for this occasion
and finally my סִיּוּם, will mean so much more.

My goal in this quest, was to mark a beginning
But I greatly surpassed, what I thought I’d achieve
חֲזָרָה sets the tone, for my future learning
This sweetness of תּוֹרָה, will help me succeed.

CHORUS:
חֲזוּ חֲזוּ, בָּנַי חֲבִיבַי
So dear to Hashem, when I’m striving so high
אוֹי וְעַסְקִין, בְּחֶדְוָתָא דִילִי
With חֲזָרָה, each word, so precious to me.
הֲדַרָן עַלָךְ, I will say with sincerity
and long to go back, to review once again
A בַּר מִצְוָה indeed, I feel that I’ve grown
For the תּוֹרָה I’ve learned, is truly my own.

חֲזוּ חֲזוּ, בָּנַי חֲבִיבַי
So dear to Hashem, is the Siyum I’ve earned
As I take the next step, loving to learn…
וְהַעֲרֶב נָא, וְהַעֲרֶב נָא
Loving to learn…
חֲזוּ חֲזוּ, בָּנַי חֲבִיבַי
