Bird of hope - MBD cover - Dovy & Yitzy Lindner
Sung by: Dovy Lindner Music, vocals recorded, edited, mixed & lyric video by: Yitzy Lindner Studios Original song by MBD (Vechol Maaminim album) (Composed By Dina Storch) The shul is crowded, the lights are dim, all have gathered for the yom hadin. Yidden stand and Yidden pray, tears keep flowing, as they sway, and they say… Their confessions, their acceptance, commitment to be better, so much better. All is still, all are waiting, for the chazan who is swaying, to the Heavens he lifts his eyes, and he cries: CHORUS 1: Oh Hashem, please give us hope for tomorrow! We have fallen, seems there is no way to rise! I feel, I cry, and I know that you are listening… but how can we go up again so high? A sudden flutter, a sudden chirp, all turn their heads to see a tiny bird, Flying high against the sky, getting tired, I don’t know why, and it tries. but it weakens and it lowers, towards the ground to the gutter, and they shudder. All is still all are waiting, for the poor little bird who is laying. It lifts up its wings so high, as it soars towards the sky. CHORUS 1: Oh Hashem, please give up hope for tomorrow! We have fallen seems there is no way to rise! I feel, I cry, and I know that you are listening… but how can we go up again so high? The Chazzan speaks. The people hear. It’s not just chance that made this bird fall here, Near the window, Near the shul, It’s a message Hashem’s to, to explain. We can go higher, even though we are sometimes, down so low, oh so low. All is still, all are waiting, for the chazan who's still swaying, He seems to be so far away, as he begins the Kol Nidrei. CHORUS 2: Yes, I know there is hope for tomorrow. Though we have fallen, we can always rise. I feel, I cry, and I know that you are listening… even though we fall we will go high. Even though we fall we’ll go high! In times of darkness and uncertainty, it's important to remember that hope is a powerful force that can guide us through the most challenging of circumstances. Hope is the spark that ignites our spirits and propels us forward, even when the path ahead seems daunting. Hope reminds us that tomorrow is a new better day, filled with opportunities for growth, change, and renewal. We believe that better days are ahead, that our efforts and resilience will be rewarded, and that the world can become a brighter place. Let hope be our guiding light, our source of strength, and our unwavering companion on the journey through life. With hope in our hearts, we can face adversity with courage, find solutions amidst difficulties, and inspire others to do the same. Remember, no matter how dark the night may seem, the dawn is just beyond the horizon. Embrace hope, for it has the power to illuminate your path and lead you towards a brighter and more promising future. Be that little bird that "soars through the sky!"
