[HANASHIR:6273] Re: hebrew lyrics

[Rachel Gurevitz <R.Gurevitz...>]

Hi Callie,

The 'Hebrew' part is actually aramaic: B'rich rachmana malka d'alma marai
d'hai pita (blessed is the compassionate one, ruler of the world, provider
of this bread).

Also, please note that the English part should say 'your blessing flows
through me' and *not* 'your blessings flow through me'.  A small difference,
perhaps, but the composer, Rabbi Shefa Gold, has a specific intention in it
being the former - it is the wholeness that is the blessing, rather than
counting lots of individual blessings.

Regards,
Rachel Gurevitz
