Blindly we struggle
Buffeted by fierce winds
Alone, separate
Afraid
The loneliness of the Galuth
The terror of the Galuth.
An empty world
An empty self
Hungry, thirsting
A world without HaKodesh BaruchHu.
And then suddenly
Night fades
Dawn approaches
Blue and green and gold
Our eyes open
Our hearts open
Our neshamas open
The path is clear
The light of the Torah
Bringing us life
And light
A light in the darkness
A path to follow
A Master to serve.
To see the world with unshuttered eyes
To feel life with open heart
To know closeness and love
To be in touch with reality
Is to know the Creator
To love the Master
To learn and to do
Always in synchrony with His Word
His Torah a light in the darkness
His Torah a path through the Galuth
Dissipating loneliness and fear
Ending separateness
Bringing us together.
This is clarity.
This is life. |
