To the tune of Mi’Armia
Download the original song on Amazon
Over a mountain on a hill,
lives a carpenter old and ill,
but Simcha is not missing from his daily life,
cause for happieness he does strive.
But all of a sudden it happened one day,
the Russians arrested him for his study and pray,
although he’s being tortured screaming from pain,
with his Simcha to Hashem he does remain.
Working in Siberia in the bitter cold,
the Simcha strengthening him although he is old,
his life comes to an end with his spirit high,
Shema Yisroel was his final cry.
More so in שנת תשמח we have to know,
serving Hashem with Simcha is the way to go,
by following the Rebbe’s words as much as we can,
we’ll soon walk with Moshiach hand in hand.
