With the departure of Yom Kippur, rejoicing in our purity and standing before the holiday of Sukkot – we are happy to bring you “Melech Rachaman“, the prayer that we asked for on the holy day and will continue to ask for on all the days of the Sukkot :
שֶׁתָּשׁוּב וּתְרַחֵם עָלֵינוּ, וְעַל מִקְדָּשְׁךָ בְּרַחֲמֶיךָ הָרַבִּים. וְתִבְנֵהוּ מְהֵרָה, וּתְגַדֵּל כְּבוֹדוֹ. אָבִינוּ מַלְכֵּנוּ, גַּלֵּה כְּבוֹד מַלְכוּתְךָ עָלֵינוּ מְהֵרָה, וְהוֹפַע וְהִנָּשֵׂא עָלֵינוּ לְעֵינֵי כָל חָי.
That you will turn and have mercy on us, and on your Mikdash with your many mercies. Please build it quickly, so its glory will increase. Our Father, our King, reveal the glory of your kingdom upon us quickly, and make it manifest and bear it upon us in the sight of all living.
The song, composed by Naftali and wonderfully arranged by Eli Klein & Yitzy Berry, is accompanied by an uplifting Kumzitz clip, filmed in the heart of ancient Jerusalem – out of a desire that we may feel the right to walk in it, and in a prayer to return to it in glory in complete redemption.
