Hashem, Ad Mosai??

T.T.T.O. Ayom V'Norah - Miami Boys Choir-Yavoh

AD MOSAI - UNTIL WHEN?!?!
This song is dedicated in tribute to all of the recent tragedies Klall Yisroel has been receiving these past few years.


 
 
 
Hashem, why have you
made so many tragedies
these past few years,
for Klall Yisroel??
 
Hashem you make
so many tests of faith.
And then you wonder
why we fail!!
 
You have taken,
only the very best.
And then you wonder why
we have no one to guide us?!
 
Chorus #1 (x2):
Ad Mosai, Ad Mosai,
Until When?
Ad Mosai, Ad Mosai,
Please stop all of this!
 
Bring the Geulah
right away!
And stop all of this horrible, pointless pain!
{End of Chorus #1}
 
Why do you make it
so very difficult?
When will you reveal
your eternal plan??
 
Does this really
make it better for you;
the fact that we suffer
because we're Jews??
 
Oh why do you do this?
Is it really so necessary?
Why cant you just bring
Moshiach already?!
 
Chorus #1
 
Chorus #2:
So Hashem,
please we beg:
Stop all of this,
right away!
 
Turn these tragedies,
into Simcha!
Bring Moshiach
right away!
Right away!
{End of Chorus #2}
 
Please let us dance
with Moshiach today!
Let your glory fill the world;
Not with sadness,
but with JOY!!
 
Chorus #1
 
Chorus #2
 
Ad Mosai,
Until When?
AD MOSAI?!

Even A Kid Can Teach

T.T.T.O. Ashreinu – Avraham Fried

Dedicated to my “nephew” Yossi Zeichner, Who taught me more than he may ever realize... and in honor of his Upsherin


Yossi, when I first met you,
I really didn't care to.
Bur now, almost three years later,
I'm really glad I did!

You taught me
So many
important things about life.
And the true meaning
Of גם זו ל'טובה !

Chorus (x2):
איזהו חכם, הלומד מכל האדם.
Even from a little kid,
You can learn so much.

And when I,
Watch you do sit-ups and exercises,
I learn what it means
To really never give up!

You taught me,
How to really have אמונה in ה'.
And that
You will
always succeed in the end.

CHORUS

Just by,
Looking at you grow,
So very quickly;
I learnt, so much,
About being a Jew!!

You taught me,
How to see,
Only good.
And because,
Of all of this,
I really got attached to you!!!

CHORUS

May you,
Grow big and strong!
And you will
overcome
any obstacle you may encounter!!

Because you have,
Such a gift,
Of teaching others:
What it means to
Really be fortunate about what you have!!!!
CHORUS

I'm Still Waiting To See...

T.T.T.O. Avinu Malkainu - Avraham Fried









It's been so long now,
And I'm still waiting to see.
To the return to Yerushalayim,
And the Mikdosh Hashlishi.

To hear the shofar blast,
And the anointing of our king.
The bringing of karbanos,
Is what I wish to see!

I want to see the resurrection,
When our loved ones will return.
When Moshe Rabbainu will lead us, once more.
No more for Geulah, do I wish to yearn!!

I wish to see the reward for learning,
What we get when we do a good deed.
The holy Shechina coming down to this lowly earth.
For all of this (and so much more) I'm still waiting to see.

Dear G-d,
Please make Klall Yisroel wait
NO MORE!!!!

Gam Zu L'Tovah

T.T.T.O. Niggun Hisvaados - Avraham Fried (Niggun Habesht)
Dedicated to all those who have difficulty seeing the good in life

(Published by collive.com on November 3, 2010 - under the title "The Good Will Soon Rise")
http://www.collive.com/show_news.rtx?id=11450&hl=roetter

He's torn apart,
Deep inside.
He doesn't know which way to turn.
He has mixed emotions,
About this life of his.

Buried deep inside of him,
He has two equally different beliefs.
To follow either one,
He doesn't know if he should.

He goes to ask,
His Rabbi,
Yet he can't,
Bring himself,
To form the words,
So he just sits there,
Trying to find a peace of mind.

Finally,
The Rabbi gets the message,
And the man feels,
A boulder leaving his heart.

He may have not received,
An answer to his questions.
Yet he did,
Receive,
The strength to believe.

He now understands,
That you must,
Thank Hashem,
For every single thing.
For the good,
For the good, as well as the bad!

He realizes now,
That he doesn't need to,
Understand "Why?"
He just needs to believe.

Believe that the good will soon rise!!

I Remember.... Do You?

T.T.T.O Ani Maamin-Avraham Fried
Dedicated to all the amazing times I had with you, Pesha, this past year.

As I gaze upon a picture of you,
I remember days,
Gone not so long ago.
I remember helping,
Clean the house for Shabbos.
And who can forget,
The chase for salmon gefilte fish??
Cleaning chicken,
And making meat-sauce.
With a secret ingredient:
Garfield comics!
polishing the candlesticks,
And baking cakes; with our hands.
And we mustn't leave out
Scrambled eggs for supper,
And pizza after kaparos!!
Shabbos at the Eidelman's,
Simchas Bais Hashoavah
On Kingston Ave.
And of course,
Simchas Torah lunch!!

Oh what a blast we we're having,
And then it came to a crashing end....
Oh why did it have to be this way?
With the coming of Moshiach,
It will be like it never ended.

May it happen before the end of this very day!!!
Ani mammon be'emunah shelimah,
Bevias ha'moshiach,
Bevias ha'moshiach,
Ani maamin!!!
Simchas Beis Hashoavah 5770
This is the last picture of Pesha & I (that i am aware of)
Simchas Beis Hashoavah 5770
The last picture of Pesha & I together

The Shabbos Candles

Shabbos - True Happiness
Shabbos - True Happiness
As I gaze unto the light,
Of the שבת Candles.
I see them slowly flickering.
As I look deep inside them,
I see the most wondrous things!

I see you,
Gazing, smiling, contently on me!
I see a world of truth and peace.
I see myself surrounded by friends and family.
I see the most wondrous things!

I see the גאולה,
It seems so very near.
I see the Rebbe,
Smiling upon me!
Oh’ I do see the most wondrous things!

As I bathe,
In the warm glow,
Of the light;
I feel so happy.
And I gaze upon my friends,
And smile.

I feel like a million,
On this Friday night!
Nothing can change it,
Because I have my light!

And then,
When they flicker out;
I do realize:
I don’t physically need them,
As long as they are inside of me,
Their message will last for eternity!!

It is then that I smile,
And laugh inside.
As I realize:
How lucky I am!

I have people who love me,
And want me only to grow.
And that’s when I get the courage,
To try again.

As I bathe,
In the warm glow,
Of the light;
I feel so happy.
And I gaze upon my friends
And smile.

I feel like a million,
On this Friday night!
Nothing can change it,
Because I have my light!

It is when I gaze unto my שבת lights,
That I do feel and see the most wondrous things!!
And they do last forever, forever and eternity!!
It’s MY שבת lights!!!
Yes, it is MY, My שבת lights!!!

He's Here!

T.T.T.O Niggun HaBaal Shem Tov
Sh! Listen!
Do you hear what I do?
I hear a shofar blast,
And it’s getting louder by the minute!

He’s finally here,
After so many years!
משיח צדקינו!
Let’s go greet him right away!

משיח צדקינו, welcome!
We’ve been waiting for you each and every day!
אברהם and יצחק, and יעקוב אבינו,
It’s a pleasure to finally meet you!

All of our loved ones,
Will come back to life.
Let us go right now,
To ירושלים הבנויה together!

Finally, after all these years of exile.
After all the bloodshed and persecution.
He’s finally arrived at our door.
Let’s all go now to the בית המקדש.

Let’s offer our thanks,
To the One Above,
For this beautiful miracle.
This time he has really shown his love!
