Heal me Hashem, let me be healed, let me be healed
Healing of my body, healing of my mind, healing of my soul 
May I be whole, may I be whole

Heal Me Hashem - Koach Baruch Frazier

Ayelet chen b’galut tis’m’cheini

Translation:
A graceful doe supports me in exileAnd here in her bosom she’ll lodge me.To drink from her cup I am always prepared,She mingles her wine with my lees.Before me, my friends, drink and be drunk,Rouse the reason that’s sleeping within me.There in her palace sits the daughter of kings,Her table ready for those who are with me.For every lover there comes a time to part,But with ardor my love shall recall me.He adorns his lady with grace and with kindness,In paths of grace and of kindness he leads me.For my beloved I spread out the clouds of the heavens,My desire she never denies me.Fifty are her gates, solid and firm, and withThe favor of Leah her wisdom sustains me.She arouses Rachel’s love for her children,Unto the tenth kingdom’s secret she’ll raise me.God, hasten to bring unto thine people salvation,And may my tongue be made pure within me.Thy great peace shall encompass those whole of heart,The sons of the pure man, a charm unto thee.

Ayelet Chen - as sung by Ofra Haza, words by R. Shalom Shabazi (Performed by Anat Hochberg)

A recording of an action, repeated each of the 40 nights before Tisha b'Av 2020, in which the sounds of the shofar and the human voice blend in a cry out to the skies as a contribution to the Black Lives Matter movement and cries for justice in this time of uprising and the pandemic. Organized by Yehudah Webster, Jews for Racial and Economic Justice, and other supporters.

Paschal Nigun - Shiru Ladonai (Psalm 96)

Sung with Zettie Shapey and Molly Bajgot

Al titvada larashut u’sna et harabanut (x2)
[Don't get intimate with the ruling authorities; hate positions of domination]

Oh my people, corrupt power won’t keep us safe
Oh my people, solidarity with neighbors keeps us safe (x2)

From Pirkei Avot (1:10), ~1800 year old compilation of Rabbinic ethical sayings:
שְׁמַעְיָה אוֹמֵר, אֱהֹב אֶת הַמְּלָאכָה, וּשְׂנָא אֶת הָרַבָּנוּת, וְאַל תִּתְוַדַּע לָרָשׁוּת:
“Shemaya taught: Love work; hate positions of domination; don’t get intimate with the ruling authorities.”

Al Titvada — Pirkei Avot (1:10)

Nafshenu seeks to reclaim and reimagine Judaism in an ever changing modern world. We believe that Judaism can and must be relevant and spiritual, provide inspirational learning, build organic community, and be a powerful voice for social change.
