someone asked me to post this for her.


Tune: In a little town in Poland...


In the City of New York

Stood a principal aglow

She touched the lives of all her students

From that very first hello

The mother of BYA

May her memory always gro.


A student of Rebbetzin Kaplan

A precious link through history

From the mother of Bais Yaakov

Sara Schenirer’s legacy


Morah Blau’s beaming smile

Continues to provide a spark

In our hearts it will remain

To give warmth in times gone dark


Teaching Torah in Bais Yaakov

She made the words come alive

The grace and beauty of Yahadus

A place where talmidos would strive


Morah Blau, Mama Rochel

We need you more than ever here

With your lively burst of spirit

Storm the heavens in appeal


Though our crown has now fallen

We mourn her from down below

In shomayim, a standing ovation

Gan Eden greets a treasured soul




מנגינה: בעיר קטנה בפולניה


בעיר גדולה בניו יורק

עמדה מנהלת גיבורה

נגעה בחיי כל תלמידותיה

ובלבבם תהיה לעד

האמא של ב.י.א.

זכר צדקת לברכה


תלמידה של רבצין קפלן

שלשלת המסורה

של האמא של בית יעקב

ולנו נצח של שרה


החיוך של מורה בלויא

לא ישכח לעולם

בלב כל אחת הוא חי

יחם לנו בלעדיה


כה תאמר לבית יעקב

בכל לבה לימדה תורה

חן וחיות של יהדות

השרישה בשיעוריה


אמי, אמי, מורה בלויא

איפה את בעת צרה?

המליצי יושר בעדינו

רחל מבכה על בניה


נפלה עטרת ראשינו

מלמטה נבכותה

וממרום ימחאו כפיים

שבה נשמתה למקומה

On my, this is beautiful. Thank you so much for posting this. I went to BYA and I feel so sad.

I just want to point out-Mrs Blau wrote the song "in a little town in Poland." That is why it is so beautiful that someone wrote a song about her using the same tune/ structure

I never knew she wrote that song . She is my “grandmother’s” youngest sister. My father was a ben bayis by her sister from his teens until he married and we are part of the family. I always considered her my great aunt. She was always such a lechtige and happy person. She will be missed. BDE

I went to bya. Tysm op for posting that! So beautiful! Someone asked Miriam Israeli to compose a song for bya to sing, right before pesach. By the time she finished composing it, school was shut, and unfortunately they can't sing it to Mrs blau, but they'll some it about her. I heard the song, it's beautiful
