[HANASHIR:8755] Re: B'tzeit Yisrael - corrections requested

[Eric Simon <erics...>]

It seems to me you are missing two lines (before the ha-hof-chi):

Heharim tirk'du ch'ei-lim, g'va-ot kiv'nei tzon. 

and

Mi-lifnei adon chuli aretz, mi-lifnei elo-ah ya-akov.

Without the repeats, the whole thing is this:

B'tzeit yisrael mi-mitzrayim, beit ya-akov me-am lo'ez.
Hai'tah y'hudah l'kodsho, yisrael mam-sh'lotav.
Ha-yam ra-ah va-yanos, ha-yarden yisov l'achor.
Heharim rak'du ch'elim, g'va-ot kiv'nei tzon.
Mah l'cha ha-yam ki tanus, ha-yarden tisov l'ahor. 
Heharim tirk'du ch'ei-lim, g'va-ot kiv'nei tzon. 
Mi-lifnei adon chuli aretz, mi-lifnei elo-ah ya-akov. 
Ha-hof-chi ha-tzur agam mayim, chalamish l'ma-y'no mayim.

Since only the first part is notated, I have transliterated and written in the rest of the psalm in as artistically as I can below.  Am I even close?  I would be most grateful if someone in the know would make corrections and send it back.  With many thanks, Rachelle
