Description

מ'דאַרף הִיטעֶן דעֶם זְמַן

We must carefully watch our time.

מ'דאַרף מְקַבֵּל זַיין עוּלָּהּ שֶׁל תּוֹרָה

We have to accept the yoke of the Torah.

יעֶדעֶר זְמַן

Every moment

יעֶדעֶר טאָג וואָס גֵייט אַוועֶק

and every day that passes

אִיז דאָס נִיט נאָר אַ טאָג

is not only a day,

נאָר אַ עִנְיָן אִין לעֶבּעֶן

but a chunk of life.

דִי טעֶג גֵייעֶן

The days pass by,

כְּמַאֲמַר (יְרוּשַׁלְמִי בְּרָכוֹת פֶּרֶק א' הֲלָכָה א')

as our Sages say (Talmud Yerushalmi, Berachos 1:1): 

יוֹם נִכְנָס וְיוֹם יוֹצֵא שַׁבָּת נִכְנָס כו' חֹדֶשׁ כו' שָׁנָה כו

“A day arrives and a day departs; a week arrives…, a month…, a year….”

דעֶר טאַטעֶ האָט געֶזאָגט בְּשֵׁם רַבֵּנוּ הַזָּקֵן

My father, [the Rebbe Rashab,] used to say in the name of the Alter Rebbe:

אַזוּמעֶרדִיגעֶר טאָג אוּן אַוִוינטעֶרדִיגעֶ נאַכט אִיז אַ יאָהר

“A summer day and a winter night is an entire year.”
