  • Beautiful ... gorgeous...but I knew that before...I have the CD!!!

    J. Wilson (get it?)

  • I would suggest that you get Dawidowicz's "The War Against the Jews 1933-1945". It is a great book and a thourough history. I think you will enjoy it.

    Shalom!

  • This song is made with odds of my soul (neshume).

  • @databoney

    It's Idish.

  • Sounds very much like German. German spoken in Vilnius, Lithuania?

  • Wonderful to hear... I have the music on a CD and it is good to read the words along with some of theYiddish words that I know...

  • מאוד נוגע ללב

  • Just found this by pure chance: what a beautiful and moving song. Thank you.

  • Touching.

    Makes me want to re-read Lucy Dawidowicz's memoir "From That Time and Place."

    (Dawidowicz was an American historian who studied in Vilna, 1938-39.)
