FULL CHORUS
Traditional Sephardic

Sarah Riskind, conductor

lyrics

Cuando el Rey Nimrod al campo salia
mirava en el cielo y en la estreyeria
vido luz santa en la giudería
que havía de nacer Avraham Avinu.

Avraham Avinu, Padre querido
Padre bendicho luz de Israel.

La mujer de Terach quedo preñada
y de dia en dia el le preguntava
¿De que tenex la cara tan demudada
eya ya savía bien que tenía.

When King Nimrod went out into the field,
He looked up to the heavens and all of the stars
He saw a holy light in the Jewish quarter
Our father, Abraham, was to be born.

Abraham, our father, our dear father,
Blessed father, light of Israel.

After Terakh’s wife became pregnant,
He would ask her from time to time:
Why do you look so different?
Only she knew what a wonderful thing she had.

(Traditional)
