AHAVAS YISROEL/TOGETHER- Marvelous Midos Machine- Composed by Abie Rotenberg, Lyrics by Rabbi Shmuel Yaakov Klein- Episode 3 (Also Recorded by Yeedle- Together)
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 light.
But Sinas Chinam brought it down, and with it so much pain.
Now only Ahavas Yisrael 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 Sinas 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 daughters and sons.
Forever, forever, you must stand together forever as one.
Together, together, you stood by Har Sinai, Bnai Avraham.
Forever, forever, you must stand together forever as one.
