Habib Galbi (“Love Of My Heart”) – The lyrics are actually in Judeo-Arabic, but some of the words are recognizable due to their similarity to Hebrew; for example, “eyni” which is Arabic for the Hebrew “eynai” (my eyes). This is actually a traditional song done in Reggae style, with some American Soul music influences.

Omer tie-in: The Omer is a time of spiritual refinement in the wilderness—we’re halfway there in a journey toward revelation at Sinai. Lyric reflection: “Take my hand, we’ll make it, I swear.” Could also explore themes of bitachon (trust) and communal support in growth.
