LYRIC
YIDDISHE MAMA- 8th Day- Composed By Shmuli Marcus- Chasing Prophecy
So holy, so pure,
So holy, so pure,
So holy.
Lucky is the mom that had you
Lucky is the dad that raised you
Lucky is the school that schooled you.
So holy, so pure.
So holy…
Evil knocked and the lights went out
The whole world cried when they heard you shout
Like never before. Like never before.
All the angels and the dreaming men
Rushed to the scene just to hold your hand
Saying what’s going on,
What’s going on.
CHORUS:
Yiddishe mamma, don’t you cry
Yiddishe mamma, in the sky
Yiddishe mamma, a lullaby
Yiddishe mamma, of Mumbai.
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll live for you
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll do what you do
Yiddishe mamma, it’s coming true
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll see it through.
So holy, so pure,
So holy, so pure,
So holy.
Lucky is the world that knew you
Lucky are the songs that sang you
Lucky are the Souls that greet you.
So holy, so pure.
So holy.
Midnight came and our hearts fell out
The world cried when they heard you shout
But you were never alone, you were never alone.
G-d was watching and said right then
You’ll be back soon
Yeah, back again
Like never before, like never before.
CHORUS:
Yiddishe mamma, don’t you cry
Yiddishe mamma, in the sky
Yiddishe mamma, a lullaby
Yiddishe mamma, of Mumbai.
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll live for you
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll do what you do
Yiddishe mamma, it’s coming true
Yiddishe mamma, we’ll see it through.
So holy, so pure,
So holy, so pure,
So holy.
