Elohai N'tzor Lyrics

Pink Martini Elohai N'tzor

(Elohai, n'tzor l'shoni meira us'fatai midabeir mirma,
V'limkal'lai nafshi tidom v'nafshi ke-afar lakol tih'yeh.
Elohai, Elohai) (3x)

P'tach, p'tach libi.
P'tach, p'tach libi,
p'tach libi b'toratecha.

Elohai n'tzor l'shoni meira us'fatai midabeir mirmah,
V'limkal'lai nafshi tidom, v'nafshi ke-afar lakol tih'yeh.
Elohai, Elohai

Elohai, n'tzor l'shoni meira us'fatai midabeir mirma,
V'limkal'lai nafshi tidom v'nashi ke-afar lakol tih'yeh.
Elohai, Elohai

Yih'yu l'ratzon imrei fi v'hegyon libi l'fanecha, Adonai, Adonai, Adonai,
Tzuri,
Adonai, Tzuri v'Go-ali.

O God, keep my tongue from evil and my lips from deceit. Help me to be
silent in the face of derision, humble in the presence of al. Open my heart
to Your Torah. May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my
heari be acceptable to You, EternalOne, my Rock and my Redeemer.
