Durme, Durme

Composer / Arranger Notes:

Shema Yisrael (“Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One”) is a declaration of the Jewish faith and a pledge of allegiance to God. It is said in the morning and at night before sleep, and is the first prayer that a Jewish child is taught to say.

Text:

Durme, durme hijiko de Madre, Durme, durme s’in ansio y dolor; Sienti joya palavrikas de tu Madre. Las palavras si Shema Yisrael. Durme, durme hijiko de Madre, Con hermozura di Shema Yisrael.

Translation:

Sleep, sleep, mother’s little one, free from worry and grief. Listen, my joy, to your mother’s words, the words of Shema Yisrael. Sleep, sleep, mother’s little one. with the beauty of Shema Yisrael.
