Meir Learns

Three songs, and the teaching inside each one. The words sit in the picture. Play a song, then read what it is holding.

Greena 5 · 4:03

Four Colors

The verse walks through the world as four colors: green leaves, brown sand, black clouds, white snow. The chorus is a walk through the vineyard. It comes to rest on אין עוד מלבדו. There is nothing besides Him.

3:20

Shabbos שבת

The week is spent longing for Shabbos. The holiness is already there, hidden under the ordinary days. The song asks to hold that light, and to carry it back into the week.

2:37

Bittul ביטול

The song sets aside one's own thoughts, plans, and certainty, speaks to Hashem, and then longs to return. Bittul here is not disappearing. It is letting go of a separate will, so a person can hear what he does not yet know.

The Sfas Emes beside this song. The Hebrew is the source. The English there is a working reading.
