GOODBYE GOLUS- Avraham Fried- Composed By Yossi Green, Lyrics By Avraham Fried- Goodbye Golus
I’ve asked the wise,
They say golus is a blessing in disguise.
A greater light follows the night.
But it’s been so long, it feels so wrong,
It’s not where we belong.
Brothers and friends,
We must bring this golus to its end.
Our urgent cries will pierce the skies,
Tell us Hashem, Ad Mosai – till when?
CHORUS:
Golus, it’s time for you to go, goodbye,
Bring down the curtain on the show, goodbye.
You’re lasting much to long, no one can deny,
Enough is enough, it’s time to say goodbye.
So open wide your prison door, goodbye,
We are your prisoners no more, goodbye.
You cannot stop us now, so don’t even try,
Goodbye, goodbye, it’s time to say good bye.
Father and king,
Everything is you and you are everything.
But the golus lies and blinds our eyes,
Why can’t we see Your majesty undisguised?
In the heavens high,
All the angles tremble when they hear you cry.
For every Jew, all we’ve been through,
‘Till we are home, you’re in golus too.
CHORUS:
Golus, it’s time for you to go, goodbye,
Bring down the curtain on the show, goodbye.
You’re lasting much to long, no one can deny,
Enough is enough, it’s time to say goodbye.
So open wide your prison door, goodbye,
We are your prisoners no more, goodbye.
You cannot stop us now, so don’t even try,
Goodbye, goodbye, it’s time to say good bye.
