about

One of the most influential Jewish figures of the
20th century, Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach (1925-1994) was born
and raised in Berlin. After the Nazis came to
power, he immigrated to the U.S. in 1939.
Known as “The Singing Rabbi,” he inspired a
generation of sidelined soul-seeking youth with
his simple and highly repetitive melodies, his
warmth, love, and stories.
“Shlomo Carlebach influenced all of American
Judaism’s mainstream movements in their
institutional attempts to find relevance and
meaning in Jewish worship and ritual.” (Rabbi
Jeffrey Summit, The Lord’s Song in a Strange
Land. Oxford University Press. p. 95).
Return Again is one of Carlebach’s well-known
works (first released in: Open Your Heart,
Sojourn Records SR-026, 1999, combining
phrases in Hebrew and English). It is a prayerlike
call, simple and repetitive, yet powerful.

lyrics

Return again, return again,
return to the Land of your Soul.
Return to who you are,
return to what you are,
return to where you are born and reborn again

[High Holidays liturgy]
