mordechai ben david - candles lyrics

Loading...

as the world lies silent mother lights the candles
and she cries, and smiles and wipes the teardrops from her eyes
the shabbos is born in our home

i feel the sudden warmth, the sudden change of air
as we stand with all the malachim there
if i could only keep the kedusha here and bring the whole world to see

i’d have them stand around me and watch me say amen
and after me they all would do the same
i know they would, there’s no need to explain how grateful they would be

if only i could tell them
if only they would know
just what it is that makes the shabbos so holy
and if i could only show them
the beauty of this day
they would keep it too and we’d send this golus away

everyone’s singing, describing all the splendor
of this world of creation; the sudden day, the sudden night;
everything beautiful, bright

then there was a sudden warmth, a sudden change of air
as flowers and gr-ss dressed up the atmosphere
if i could only keep the kedusha there and bring the whole world to see

all the birds, and the fish, and the animals big and small
blossoming trees and water to feed them all
and man was formed to heed his master’s call;
the world was completed

and then the sun began to lower, the world was all done
the day of shabbos, of rest and beauty for everyone
vayivorech ess yom hashvi’i vayekadesh oso
ki vo shavos mikol milachto

everyone’s singing…
