Summer ends, fall comes near
The Jewish days of awe are here
With prayer and music we manifest our tradition
As we co-create this year’s edition
Unetaneh tokef, Who shall live and who shall die
This is serious and somber, no way to lie
Honey is eternally golden and sweet
But at the days of awe, many forces meet
Apples are good, yet sometimes tart and sharp
Well, thank goodness for Rav Gavrielle’s harp
As we gather at the new year’s start
We open our spirit and our heart
Let’s work to grow, stretch and learn to love more
Welcome new friends and embrace the year 5784
