Yismaḥ Moshe b'matnat ḥelko
U-mah natata lo? Keter b'rosho natata lo Yismaḥ Moshe b'matnat ḥelko U-mah karata lo? 'Eved ne'eman karata lo Yismaḥ Moshe b'matnat ḥelko U-mah horeed b'yado? Shnei luḥot ha-brit horeed b'yado | יִשְׂמַח מֹשֶׁה בְּמַתְּנַת חֶלְקוֹ
וּמַה נָתַתָּ-לּוֹ כֶּתֶר בְּרֹאשׁוֹ נָתַתָּ-לּוֹ יִשְׂמַח מֹשֶׁה בְּמַתְּנַת חֶלְקוֹ וּמַה קָרָאתָ-לּוֹ עֶבֶד נֶאֱמָן קָרָאתָ-לּוֹ יִשְׂמַח מֹשֶׁה בְּמַתְּנַת חֶלְקוֹ וּמַה הוֹרִיד בְּיָדוֹ שְׁנֵי לוּחוֹת הַבְּרִית הוֹרִיד בְּיָדוֹ |
Translation:Moses rejoiced in the gift of his portion.
And what did you give him? A diadem of glory you placed upon his head. Moses rejoiced in the gift of his portion. And what did you call him? You called him a faithful servant. Moses rejoiced in the gift of his portion. And what did he carry in his hands? In his hands he brought down the two tables of stone. Translation based on The Standard Prayer book by Simeon Singer (1915) (public domain), with changes to reflect the structure of the song. | |
