Yidi Bialostozky - Pieseszno (English)

[music] >> 83 miles from Lodge, 10 and 1/2 from Warsaw, sits Piaseczno. [music] As a lighthouse for Hasidim so bright, a beacon of kedusha in the night, serves Piaseczno. Like young Yehuda Aryeh Leib, [music] young boys left their homes behind for Piaseczno. To feed [music] the soul and mind, their purpose in life to find in Piaseczno. A symbol [music] of Torah and Yirah, of Kalonymus Kalman Shapiro of Piaseczno. >> [music] >> Teaching the young generation purity and sanctification in Piaseczno. [music] The pain of every Jew is felt, [music] every child is availed in Piaseczno. The Rebbe teaches [music] them a smidgen, the choyev satalmidim the Piaseczno. [music] He said, "Do someone else a favor, t'fillah with great [music] fervor. Kedusha isn't a gift, it's a daily quest. Yiras Shamayim isn't fear, it's love and humility that draws you near. [music] A Hasid shows his strength when he is put to test." >> [music and singing] [music] [singing] [music] [singing] [music] >> In the ghetto during the war, a shkoy desh so pure, writes [music] the Piaseczno.

Watched his lineage [music] go up in flames, the only child that carried his name the Piaseczno. >> [music] >> Leading in the darkest days, turning agony into silent praise, like only the Piaseczno [music] can. Al Kiddush Hashem on that cheshvan night, darkness outweighed [music] the light, the Rebbe's soul to its creator [singing] returned. But as the time goes on, it is clear [music] like the dawn, his flame will forever burn. >> [music] [singing] [music] [singing] [music] >> I am Hasidic. >> [music] >> L'chaim, l'chaim. L'chaim, l'chaim.
