Transliteration:
Tzomoh lecho nafshi, komah lechah besari, be'aretz tziyah
ve'ayaif beli mayim.
Translation:
My soul thirsts for You,
My flesh longs for You,
in a dry and weary land
without water.
So may I look for You in the sanctuary,
to see Your power and Your glory.
Psalms 63: 2,3 |

Usually attributed to the Alter Rebbe, it is not certain whether the melody is actually one of his ten compositions. The melody is filled with poignancy and is sung soulfully. It is a favorite of the Rebbe, who revived it on Shabbat Mevorchim in the month of Iyar, 5714 (1954) at a Chassidic gathering.

Wow! I can't believe you have them online! I'd love to buy them, too. I grew up with these, although we were not Lubavitcher chassidim. This WAS Jewish music. It still is, nothing like the trash they put out today.
Thank you!
