about

The picture of a choir of harps playing in a cathedral was what I had in mind for this triple-counterpoint piece. Both of the first two songs can be used as rounds, which I did here. Ablakomba's uneven length compared to the other two pieces adds an aspect of spiraling that reflects the passing of time for me.

lyrics

Lo Yisa Goi
(Phonetic Hebrew)

Ei-oh-oh
Lo yisa goi el goi chrev
Lo yilm'du od michamah
(English translation)
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation
Nor ever again shall they train for war

Kol HaN'shamah
(Phonetic Hebrew)

Hal'hu....
Kol han'shamah
t'haleil yah

Hal'lu, hal'luyah

(English translation)

May everything that has breath praise God
Praise be to God

Ablakomba
(Hungarian)

Ablakomba, ablakomba besutott a holdvilag
A ki kettot, harmat szeret sosincs arra jo vilag

Lam en csak egyest szeretek
Megis de sokat szenvedek
Ez az alnok beres legeny
Caslta meg a szivemet

Through My Window
(English translation)

Through my window brightly shines the silvery moon
Loving many, heart inconstant
Sadness it will bring you soon

Yes, I love you, only you dear
Great my anguish when you're not near
You've deceived me, left me pining
Broken hearted, lonely, crying
