where can i listen to jewish chabad music on the net?
Thank You
|
The music on this page is a Chabad melody, you can also find many more selections at this link.

I've scoured the Selichot section and can't find this - I really want to see the Hebrew and not the transliteration - it's SO beautiful - can you help me find it?
Thanks

I apologize for the delay while researching the issue. This piyut (liturgical poem), Darkecha Elokeinu, is recited during the Yom Kippur evening prayers -- not during Selichot as was previously erroneously stated on the page above.
The words of the song are actually the refrain of the (much longer) piyut, composed by Yosi son of Yosi, the first such composer that we know of by name from Mishnaic times. In most communities the entire poem is not sung, only the few lines of Darkecha Elokeinu.
Click here to see the complete piyut.
(With
thanks to my brother Shalom Hazan for researching the matter.)
