[Shabbat evening]

lyrics

Barukh atah Adonai, Eloheinu melekh
ha-olam, borei p’ri hagafen. Barukh atah
Adonai, Eloheinu melekh ha-olam, asher
kid’shanu b’mitzvotav v’ratzah vanu,
v’shabbat kodsho, b’ahavah uv’ratzon
hinhilanu, zikaron l’ma’aseh v’reshit. Ki hu
yom t’hilah l’mikra’ei kodesh, zekher litzi’at
mitzrayim. Ki vanu vaharta, v’otanu kidashta
mikol ha-amim, v’shabbat kodsh’kha,
b’ahavah uv’ratzon hinhaltanu. Barukh atah
Adonai, m’kadesh ha-shabbat.

Praised are You, Lord our God, King of the
universe, who creates the fruit of the vine.
Praised are You, Lord our God, King of the
universe, whose mitzvot add holiness to
our lives, cherishing us through the gift of
His holy Shabbat granted lovingly, gladly,
a reminder of Creation. It is the first among
our days of sacred assembly which recall
the Exodus from Egypt. Thus You have
chosen us, endowing us with holiness, from
among all peoples by granting us Your holy
Shabbat lovingly and gladly. Praised are
You, Lord, who hallows Shabbat.
