	/

Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

This is Die Drei Kantoren’s second CD, consisting of Chazzanut, Yiddish and Chasidic melodies, Israeli songs, and Sepharadic piyutim – all in original arrangements. We are happy to feature some wonderful guest artists who made this second album even richer in sound and inspiration. Two of the pieces in this album – Pitchu Li and Elu Dvarim – were composed especially for us by our very own Ido Ben-Gal and Assaf Levitin. Our dozens of concerts in Jewish communities and in festivals in Germany and abroad motivated us to get back into the recording studio as quickly as possible. For this we are very thankful.

lyrics

Zion, my innocent one, Zion, my beloved one,
My soul longs for you from afar.
May my right hand forget her cunning
If I should ever forget you, my beautiful one,
Until my grave closes itself over me.
I shall never forget you, Zion, my beloved!
You are my hope and longing for as long as I live.
Even if I forget all – You are the remainings of my soul,
And you, Zion, shall be a mark on my grave.

צִיּוֹן תַּמָּתִי, צִיּוֹן חֶמְדָּתִי
לָךְ נַפְשִׁי מֵרָחוֹק הוֹמִיָּה.
תִּשְׁכַּח יְמִינִי
אִם אֶשְׁכָּחֵךְ, יָפָתִי,
עַד תֶּאֱטַר בּוֹר קִבְרִי עָלַי פִיהָ.
לֹא אֶשְׁכָּחֵךְ, צִיּוֹן חֶמְדָּתִי!
אַתְּ, כָּל אֱחִי, תּוֹחַלְתִּי וְשִׂבְרִי.
עֵת הַכֹּל אֶשְׁכָּחָה - אַתְּ שְׁאֵרִית נִשְׁמָתִי,
וְצִיּוּן, אַתְּ - צִיּוֹן, תְּהִי עֲלֵי קִבְרִי!
