Nigun: Tza Lecha Nafshi - Slow Version - We Yearn for G-d and Know You Are with Us

this week the negan is going to beat some of the nafsi in honor of gimbal thomas which is this shabbos and i'll sing both versions of the negan and talk a little bit about it so let's begin with the classical some of the honors that taught it and sang it to us at fabregan's throughout the years of his leadership so molly the air i [Music] [Laughter] [Music] the fourth part okay [Applause] psalm 62 or 64. he says he's in yehuda in the judean desert he's outside of yerushalayim he yearns for jerusalem he learns for the day he'll get back to yerushalayim salman my soul is thirsty for you god kamala sorry my flesh shrivels up for you god the ereziah in a land of thirst and tiredness exhaustion where there is no water to drink it's a desert it's a judean desert or a yehuda it's hot as i saw you once in the holiness in the basa in the aqua edition holiness to see i wish to see your might and your honor and presence so literally king david has a yearning has a longing he wants to return to yerushalayim and he cries out he calls out to god i'm tired and exhausted of this i want to come back i want to tell you when the rapper sang this song for example youtube 1975 i was there and a few other times when he sang it i was there everyone three to five thousand people in that room wanted one thing only to be with the rebbe and god that's it nowhere else nothing else the yearning of longing as her being in that room and when the rebel would sing the actual words and then we hasidim re repeated the the iii stanzas and then again the words after that were so penetrating into the depth of every person's soul their neshama was so inspired to just want to be with god to want to return etc there is a another version of the song it's more lively and let me sing it and then we'll talk about it hey it's [Applause] [Music] same words same meaning obviously but then there's the ukrainian words what are you doing in the market you johnny what are you doing in the market you don't buy you don't sell all you do is yell who is this johnny who is this the troublemaker the gates of heart of the deputy's evil inclination the animal drive that makes a person crazy to desire things that are so unhealthy for us for the individual spiritually if you bought and you sold made a profit okay but you don't buy you don't sell me to say you're not making a profit anyway you're not coming out ahead of the anyway so why are you making the jew crazy now i want to hear this this this these words and the connection to the words and to heal him of some of the means what's the purpose of god giving us challenges so really it's a song about overcoming challenges and the answer is if there's something to benefit from the challenges it's worthwhile and there is there is if you channel properly harnessing the yates or horror the nefesh obama is the right way the urges in the right way you can become the greatest person you can have the greatest feelings you can you can overcome because you take that negative energy you transform it so david in saying i'm thirsty i'm tired i'm exhausted i'm longing for you god at the same time is expressing an opportunity the opportunity to take diversity and make it into positivity may god help each and every one of us as we sing and bring this shabbos for the yard said of the rabbit sing this [ __ ] and we'll be saying that god
