Figured I would start a new thread...

Beautiful song, always been one of my favorites but would love to see the lyrics for the entire song.

Thanks!

אמא תגידי לי
מה את מבקשת
הנה את עומדת
לפני נרות השבת
דמעות יורדות
מעיניך הסגורות

Got busy, sorry

Interesting. I know it differently than the amother who posted. But I don't know how I can type hebrew on my computer.

Ima tagidi li

hinech omedes lifnei neiros hashabas
d'maos notzitzos

Ima lamah at bocha?
S'fasayich rochashos
batefilah mimalmelos (?)
Ima tagidi li
Mah at mivakeshes

אמא תגידי לי
מה את חושבת עכשיו
הינך עומדת
לפני נירות השבת
דמעות נוצצות
על עיניך הסגורות
ואמא למה את בוכה
שפתיך לוחשות
בתפילה ממלמלות
אמא תגידי לי
מה את מבקשת

יהי רצון

My Hebrew isn't perfect so if I got one of the words wrong I hope someone will correct it.

I actually just remembered now that I learned this song in school many years ago and we sang a few more stanzas. I'm not sure if they are part of her original song or maybe my teacher added them?

Ima bo'I shvi iti
kan al hamita sheli
kol laila at koreis iti
es kriyas hashema
ani ko ayeifa
ukvar me'at yeshaina
vi'ima at adayin liyadi
...........
...............
ima tagid li
mah at mivakeshes


and another stanza I only can recall a few words

ima....
ki ze hayom yom chupasi...

Ima tagidi li
Ma at choshevet achshav
Hineich omedet lifnei nerot hashabbat
D'maot notzitzot al einayich has'gurot
Ima, lamah at bochah?
S'fatayich lochashot b'tfila m'malmilot
Ima, ma at mevakeshet?

Chorus:
Yehi ratzon, milfanecha Elokai
Shetizakeini l'gadel
Banim uvnei vanim
Ohavei Hashem
Yir'ei Elokim
Banim uvnei vanim
Chachamim u'nevonim
Zera kodesh, baHashem d'veikim
Banim uvnei vanim
Me'irim et haolam
B'maasim tovim uv'toratam
V'zakeini l'gadel banim


Ima, bo'I shvi iti
Kan al hamitah sheli
Kol laylah at koreit iti
Et kriat hash'ma
Ani koh ayeifah
U'chvar kim'at yesheinah
V'Ima, at adayin l'yadi
Sfatayich lochashot
b'tfilah m'malmilot
Ima, tagidi li
Ma at mevakeshet

Yehi ratzon milfanecha Elokai

Ima, barchi oti
B'zeh hayom yom chupati
Omedet ani atah
Al saf chayim chadashim
V'zot tikvati
She'etzyatzev gam ani
K'mo Ima
Lifnei nerot Shabbat
V'chach e'eneh ani
K'shetish'al oti biti,
Ima, tagidi li,
Ma at mevakeshet?

Chorus:


That's the whole thing Smile

There's another verse, before the chupah one.

Ima, limdi oti
Et derech hayesharah.
Ani rotzah lirchosh
Et ahavatech la Torah.
Abba lomed
U'baTorah shocked,
V'Ima, at omedte l'yemino.
Sfatayich lochashot...

That sounds nice, but it's not part of the original song.

Huh. Go figure. That's how I was taught the song. Live and learn.
