This piyyut is sung on Yom Kippur evening. It is an alphabetic acrostic - the first line beginning with alef and the final line with tav. This lovely melody is a traditional Eastern, or Mizrachi, melody from Jerusalem. The text is found in Kol Haneshama on pp. 794-5.

  • Each line in the acrostic (starting with alef and ending with the letter tav) is a line of praise - God is the master of forgiveness, awesome in praise, the one who answers in time of trouble, etc. Then the chorus phrase means "We have done wrong before you; be merciful to us."
