From Frank London’s album, In the City of God, a collection of 8 new Hakafot dancing songs for Simchat Torah. “B’rov Sarahpai” - the third video from Frank London’s upcoming album “In The City Of God”, is a more somber and reflective tune, in contrast with the seven other upbeat and joyous pieces. We hope this melody and these words aid in your contemplation and help us each find peace within ourselves amidst the chaos around us all.

Title: B’rov Sarapai - Elegy for October 7, 2023

Fourth Hakafa Part A, Text from Psalm 94, Wednesday

Text:

בְּרֹב שַׂרְעַפַּי בְּקִרְבִּי תַּנְחוּמֶיךָ יְשַׁעַשְׁעוּ נַפְשִׁי

Be-rov Sar’ah-pai Be’kir-bee

Tan-chu-meh-cha Yeh-sha’ah-she-’u Naf-shee

When worrisome thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations soothe my soul.
