Blackmore's Night - Ma-O-Tzur Lyrics






[Hebrew part:]

Ma'oz tsur yeshu'ati
lecha na'eh leshabeakh.
Tikon beit tefilati
vesham todah nezaveakh.

Le'et tachin matbeakh
mitsar hamnabeakh,

'az 'egmor beshir mizmor
khanukat hamizbeakh.

'az 'egmor beshir mizmor
khanukat hamizbeakh.

[English part:]

Rock of ages
Crown this praise
Light and songs to you we raise
Our will you strengthen
To fight for our redemption
Our will you strengthen
To fight for our redemption
We celebrate with hymn and praise
Festive candles to you we raise
We celebrate with hymn and praise
Festive candles we celebrate

    "Our will you strengthen To fight for our redemption" is not a good transaltion of "Le'et tachin matbeakh mitsar hamnabeakh " that means something more ... truce

    I am so moved to hear Candice sing in my native language

  7. J.... ....

    Wow, Hebrew is such a beautiful language!

    J.... ....

    אז תחתכי את הלשון שלך ותכניסי אותו עמוק עמוק בתוך הישבן שלך

    J.... ....

    No, it’s in Hebrew, NOT in Aramaic. I speak Hebrew, I recognize Aramaic, so I know which one she’s singing in.

    J.... ....

    VD Yes, I made a huge typo in my message (omitting a couple of words, I accidentally changed the meaning of what I wrote), so I’ve now re-edited to add the missing words from my typo.

    I love Jews.  They know how to party and they're rich :)  

    s.... s....

    +Kiki Katz
    True. Yet, it's OK for the vast majority of the Jews. Love them very much. Spent my adolescence with a large group of Jewish friends. I'll never forget that period of my youth.

    s.... s....

    +Colette Simon it's wrong, false and you're ridiculous.

    s.... s....

    Not true, its mainly the Super religious ones, the super religious Jews grow up under strict learning so they always become Doctor or lawyer or any high class job they prefer, another is that a lot of Religious jewish families have a lot of kids so they need good jobs and money to afford that. I am not religious but as a Jew I can confirm this is the case, at least in the UK it is

    s.... s....

    "rich"????

    s.... s....

    @Grimlock7 Jews in UK are wealthier than US Jews, that's my experience

  14. A.... K....

  23. S.... H....

    @1sattaman---she translated the song after she sang it in Hebrew.

  24. 8.... ....

    This is my favorite Chunukkah song. It's a beautiful song, or it can be fun (depending on the beat and tune used), and it's the epitimy of what Chanukkah is. I learned the song when I was only five years old, and it has stuck with me to this day. Both the Hebrew and English parts are amazing, and there are so many different translations for the English part, but all of them are wonderful.
    Happy Chanukkah everyone.
