about

Lyrics: Shlomo HaLevi Alkabetz (16th century Tzfat)
Melody: Based on a Moroccan folk song

Sung at the climax of Kabbalat Shabbat services on Friday night, this well-known mystical poem depicts Shabbat as both bride and queen.

lyrics

לְכָה דוֹדִי לִקְרַאת כַּלָּה
פְּנֵי שַׁבָּת נְקַבְּלָה

Come, my beloved, to welcome the bride;
Let us greet Shabbat as she arrives

Rouse yourself, rouse yourself
For your lamp is lit; let the flame rise up and glow.
Awake awake, utter songs of praise,
For God’s glory is revealed in your gaze
