Tzomo, Tzomo
My soul thirsts for You, my body yearns for You. (Tehillim, 63:2) One of the oldest Chabad tunes. The first section describes the thirst of the soul as it cries out in longing to G-d. The second part set to words in Russian, describes the agony of the soul as it chides the evil inclination evil which obstructs its spiritual quest: Hey, you foolish Mark! Why do you travel to the market? You don't buy, you don't sell, you only cause strife! The evil comes to this world (market) not to "buy" acquire Mitzvot nor to "sell" or nurture others with Mitzvot, it only causes strife between the Jew and G-d.
