Ki Onu Amecho

Lyrics:

Transliteration:

Ki a-nu a-me-chah ve-a-tah e-lo-kei-nu, a-nu ba-ne-chah ve-a-tah a-vi-nu.

Translation:

For we are Your people, and You are our G-d; We are Your people, and You are our Father.

Liturgy

From the High Holiday service. The melody conveys a plea for redemption of the soul, strengthening of the spirit, and mercy from our Heavenly Father for His children. It was introduced by the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, on the holiday of Simchat Torah in 1956.

Composed or Taught By
The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson

Ki Onu Amecho

This volume 1 version is beautiful, ethereal and pure. It is really special and magical and is much better than any other version. It's like a musical version of 'The rebbe's daughter' book. I had no idea Reb Scneerson 'discovered' it until I read your notes but it was obvious to him that this was a very special tune. I play it often on my way to work.
